1 box Uncle Ben's broccoli rice au gratin mix
2 1/4 cup hot water

1 cup chopped fresh broccoli
1 cup shopped fresh carrots
1/2 a med. onion diced
1 clove minced garlic
1 tsp. Penzey's Mural of Flavor seasoning (if you don't have a Penzey's that's very sad for you but if you must you could use any seasoning blend that you really like)

Directions:

Personal Notes:
I got this recipe off the Uncle Ben's box probably 25 years ago. But I have to say, I don't really measure stuff I just dump it in. So I admit to kinda guessing on the amounts used in this recipe, so feel free to taste as you go and add more or less of whatever you need.
