EverydayCooked

White Rice and Peas is a Caribbean-inspired dish combining fluffy white rice with tender legumes—traditionally kidney beans or pigeon peas—cooked in seasoned liquid. This staple pairing creates a complete protein profile through complementary amino acids, offering sustained energy from complex carbohydrates alongside plant-based protein and fiber. Often prepared with coconut milk, thyme, and allspice, it provides a versatile gluten-free base that adapts well to both vegetarian and vegan dietary patterns.
