If you are just getting started with the Mediterranean diet and looking for a fool-proof, no fuss way to make a balanced dinner recipe out of a handful of affordable ingredients, then this 30-minute lemony baked rice and bean recipe is for you.
Today’s Mediterranean menu recipe is my kind of dinner. It pulls together a handful of pretty ordinary and affordable ingredients but it makes a dish that has this incredible flavor. Plus, it’s loaded with all the things that are good for you: healthy protein from the beans and almonds, tons of fiber from the whole grains, lots of nutrients from whatever veggies you want to add if you have them and it ends up with a bunch of different textures in each bite, which I love – all in one bowl. Plus, it’s one of the easiest ways to make perfect rice every time. Start on the stovetop, finish in the oven!

This looks and "smell" wonderful! Finally got a that style pan this past week so this will go on the menu this week. Right this minute I have a vegetable tian in the oven with zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes, potatoes, onions and thyme. Love my new pan and I love this grain and bean dish. Thank Caroline!!
One dish meals are the best when there’s just the two of us. Thanks. Loving your recipes.
I am going to try this, and I like one dish recipes. It looks so good.
Looks very tasty. More recipes with legumes would be great please.
Is the recipe listed anywhere?
I hit the like button before I even watched the video because I knew it would be good! I like that you keep the videos short and to the point.
I love the one dish meal.
I love one pot meals with just a handful of ingredients. Low carb recipes would be great for those who are trying to manage diabetes; I love all the grains and beans but they don’t always love be back 😢. The mix you’re using looks interesting.
Thanks Caroline, love this recipe.
im looking for those super fast last minute recipe videos stuff that even my 7 year old could make

Looks fabulous! Will definitely try it this week Caroline.

This looks really good! 👍🏼 Thanks! And I read another comment requesting some recipes using legumes. I’d like that too please! Beans and legumes are my main source of protein.
Thank you Caroline for sending the recipe! Can't wait to make it

Hola, Caroline! This is another great vlog and recipe! 😬 As a Pescatarian, I’d love to see more content with recipes for my recently acquired Cosori Dual Blaze Air Fryer. My husband cooked 2 Salmon Filets for lunch a few days ago. They came out better cooked in the Air Fryer than the only other way my husband usually cooked them and that was on the Traeger Smoker. I wish you well in your studies with Stanford! 👍. Thanks for your recipes and your wonderful YT channel’s content. You’re appreciated more than words can express. 💜. Ciao, Goldi. 🇺🇸

Carolyn, this looks tasty and I bet the different textures will be really nice. I love a one pot meal and since I've been watching you and a couple other Mediterranean influencers we've been eating more plant based meals. Your hair looks beautiful too!
Dear Carolyn.
For people like me just getting familiarized with the Mediterranean lifestyle, your channel and fabulous recipes are a godsend.
Thank you for all these wonderful recipes and ideas. I can’t wait to make this dish.
