For another easy one-pot meal, use leftover brown rice (or quinoa), toss it with vegetables and almonds, and top it with an over-easy egg cooked using nonstick cooking oil. It’s a speedy way to get in four food groups.

Ingredients
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 small package (10-oz) frozen green beans
- 2 Tbsp slivered almonds
- 2 Tbsp reduced-sodium teriyaki sauce
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/2 tsp granulated garlic
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2 cups cooked brown rice
- Cooking oil spray
- 4 eggs
How to make it
In a large nonstick pan, sauté onion pieces in a thin layer of water. When the onions become translucent, add almonds and teriyaki sauce. Add minimal water as needed; when liquid begins to absorb, mix in green beans and almond butter. Add cooked rice to pan, mixing in garlic and cayenne pepper.
Meanwhile, spray a medium nonstick pan with cooking oil spray, and “fry” eggs.
Divide vegetable-and-rice mixture into four bowls, topping each bowl with a fried egg.
