Already on the second day you have a complete protein. A perfectly healthy meal that you could eat for many days and be well-nourished.
Like with the rice, it's probably a good idea to make a big pot and
then split it into different containers. Also, I had no compunction
about just using canned beans and chickpeas, or bags of frozen rice, for
convenience.
This in itself is something to be grateful for: food privilege. If you can easily arrange to have this meal in front of you, then you are truly lucky. And this is only two days into the diet! There are many reasons why someone might not be able to share this experience with you. The obvious one being that they simply can't afford the food. But they could also be constrained by food allergies. Or it could be too difficult to attain for other reasons besides cost.
Enjoy the heartiness of this meal. Enjoy the different ways you can eat it - warm or cold, whole or ground into paste by a food processor. Most of all, enjoy the way that it fills you with what you need.
