Hold that thought. If wanting quick and easy, but still heated, take
those stewed, or chopped, canned tomatoes, canned beans (any red,
pinto, white, navy), some chopped onions and herbs if you wish, and
mixed with leftover rice. That can become beans & rice, or jambalaya,
without the hours'-long preparaton those recipes normally call for.
OK, then add some chopped ham or chicken or pork leftovers. OK, I'm
digressing from the thread.
