Persian Rice & Ful

A fragrant green rice alongside an earthy stew of fava beans

Short History: Ful medames was originally peasant food in Ancient Egypt. However, it has developed almost into a national dish and is now popular street food. It is very filling and makes a useful part of breakfast before a day’s fasting during Ramadan. This meal from The Vegan Taste will provide you with Vitamins C, A, & K, iron, magnesium, folate, and more!

Reheating Instructions: Warm over medium in a pan

Customer Comments:

“I loved every component of this dish and would welcome the addition of fava beans any time!” – Rebecca Sp. from Phoenix

“I think this was my favorite meal. Also was spicy, which was fine for me, just couldn’t share it with our son. Don’t eat fava beans much so that was a nice change. I liked the overall flavor and combination of this dish.” – Kara Cy. from Mesa

“Heat of tangy fava beans offset by the cool mint. Yummy!” – Mary Lee Ma. from Glendale
