  beans, water and grain. Season with herbs and spices of your choice.

  (I would cut back on the beans to make it count as 1 starch/bread) (I
  also would use a combintion of couscous & quinoa and even add any
  free vegetables. This would be great to make ahead and take to work
  in the summer time.) From Vegetarian Times Typed by Lisa Greenwood
