This is a good one you can eat it hot, cold or warm. Keep it in a box in the fridge and it is available for quick snacks. A mix of carbs and protein with added veggies. Makes a nice change to plain old rice or pasta. Also really good in lunch boxes.
Grandma Beryl does something very similar with a packet of shop bought pre-prepared grains. She adds in avocado and some fried halloumi.
Basically you can vary this one as much as you like depending on what is in the fridge and cupboard.
