VEGGIE TOWERS

6 six-oz. paper cups

1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed

Prepared rice or couscous (leftovers)

1 red pepper, chopped fine (or any leftover veggies)

3/4 cup frozen corn, thawed

Cooking spray



Step 1
Spray six paper cups with nonstick cooking oil.

Step 2
Fill each cup with about the same amount of peas.

Step 3
Spoon 3 tablespoons of the rice or couscous over the peas and press down with a spoon to make level.

Step 4
Add a layer of red pepper to each cup. Then, on top of the peppers, add another layer of rice, pressing down on the mixture.

Step 5
Top with the corn. Press down again.

Step 6
Place a small piece of wax paper on top of each cup and microwave on high power until the mixture is heated through, about 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 7
Place a saucer or plate over the cups and flip over, so the cup is upside down. Let the cups stand for about 5 minutes.

Step 8
Give the cups a few taps and gently lift them off the Towers.
