This easy dish is a quick one, ready in just 20 minutes, and it’s prepared exclusively in the microwave. We’ve paired quick-cooking brown rice and deli roast beef with a fresh bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms to create a hearty meal. You can substitute 1 1/2 teaspoon fresh chopped thyme in place of the dried if you like; fresh will have a more assertive flavor. Enjoy this dish with microwave-cooked green beans. Put 4 cups trimmed green beans in a microwavable shallow dish and add 2 tablespoons water. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap with a few holes poked in it, and microwave on high 4 minutes or until the beans are crisp-tender.
