    1/2 can small brown beans (seasoned version)

In the morning (or the night before), combine the ingredients in a plastice container.

Mix. Nuke for 3 minutes at high for lunch. Yummee!

Add a bit of cinnamon to the beans as they're cooking. This may seem as odd choice, but it gives the dish a great, surprising flavor.

I get oyster mushrooms in the oriental section of my supermarket. If you have an oriental market available, you will, of course, find them there too.  Archived comment by: alan
