You might be wondering, "brtw, why are you posting to your cooker blog?"
Because I'm trying to a) eat less meat and b) eat healthier overall, so here is me muck banging my cabinets and making what I can with what I know I have:
Made this as the base for some lentils
curry & bay leaf with 1 cube of BOU Chicken Gravy
1-1/4 dry cups goya lentils simmered for 25 minutes
4 cups water
1 bay leaf (or 3 small ones in my case)
1 tsp of curry powder (1 tsp is generous imho, when you boil curry, it goes far)
133 calories
1 piece of marinated chicken, no sauce for 60 calories
So all together 477 calories if you don't add olive oil or butter, it's a dry combination even if you have plenty of lentils sauce, so I recommend at least 1 tsp of oil oil mixed into the rice+couscous combo to help loosen it up and give it some extra flavor.
550 calories
8 out of 10 - I'm looking forward to eating my leftovers
