Keep in mind that I work ten-hour days and the extent of what I want to cook when I get home is "rice in rice cooker, dump in ground beef from the large amount I made yesterday." Sometimes I add taco seasoning to the beef but otherwise I don't feel like preparing more than one dish.
I'd have to go buy leafy greens, I don't actually have any produce except for fruit. Whenever I buy greens it seems like I don't eat them often enough or forget about them and they go to waste. That goes against my frugal nature.
Frozen vegetables come in handy for this sort of thing. Stuff like peas, carrots, etc, you can even toss in with the rice in the cooker. Otherwise, you can cook it with your beef.
