ITALIAN RICE AND BEANS AND SPICED SWEET POTATO FRIES

Yesterday I Made:
ITALIAN RICE AND BEANS AND SPICED SWEET POTATO FRIES for DINNER.
Brown rice, a blend of Italian Spices, balsamic vinegar, spinach, pine nuts, red beans and oil-packed sun dried tomatoes.

The recipe also called for lemon zest, but I didn't have any.
I doubled the recipe and only had 1 can of red beans, so I used garbanzo as well.

This recipe can be found at VeganYumYum or you can go out and buy the brand new book (with the same name as the blog) at Barnes & Noble, just like I did.
Great recipes and lots of pictures.

The SPICED SWEET POTATO FRIES were easy to make and very tasty.
The spice comes from the cinnamon and the sweetness comes from maple syrup.
Goes great with the Italian Rice and Beans.
This recipe came from a brand new cookbook, CLEAN FOOD by Terry Walters.
The entire book is vegan, but it doesn't say it anywhere on the cover.
Tons and tons of original recipes, but no pics.
I highly recommend it!

First of all, I LOVE Mr. Tickle!

I'm really interested in the book Clean Food. Does it have new information and innovative recipes?

I just got it 3 days, so I haven't had a chance to read it yet. Just skimmed thru the recipes.
