A can of beans, a can of tomatoes, some Indian-style seasoning, serve over rice, and you've got yourself a quick and healthy vegetarian meal. Use the higher amount of spices if you like your food a bit spicier. Adapted from The Vegetarian Gourmet's Easy Low-Fat Favorites.

I liked this, but I felt it needed something...not sure what. I used red beans instead of kidney - not sure if that was it or not. But, the husband liked them and my vegan daughter will like them, I am sure. I also started, as another reviewer did, with sauteed onion before adding the rest of the ingredients. I did not feel that this needed cornstarch, so I eliminated that step. Also did not use honey but used about a teaspoon of agave nectar.

    I sauteed 1/3 c. of chopped onion with 1/8 tsp. garlic powder before adding the other ingredients. I used one very large diced tomato instead of a can of tomatoes & I used only 1 tsp. of honey as I'm not a huge fan of it. This was so quick & easy to make & tasted great with the brown rice I made. Definitely a busy weeknight meal that will make a reappearance on my dinner table.

    So simple and quick to make. I served it over rice. I did not find any need to thicken it with cornstarch at all. I did add some minced garlic. I just goes so well with almost anything!!

    This is the perfect weeknite meal for me! I used high measurements of spices and served over couscous. Only 2 WW points per serving (not including couscous, which adds 4 points for 1/3 dry cup). Yummy, quick, healthy, and it doesn't blow my diet. Thank you so much--I'll be having this often!
