Introduction

Okay, it's not really a pilaf...but it's still delish. This is an "I need to clean out my fridge" kind of meal. I love serving this with Vegan Parmesan over the top. You can increase or decrease the seasonings any way that you like. Okay, it's not really a pilaf...but it's still delish. This is an "I need to clean out my fridge" kind of meal.
