I recently tried this recipe and it turned out pretty good.
We added a little garlic and Chinese 5-spice.

"Cook-up rice" is an island way to use leftover vegetables and rice.
"Whatever you have in the kitchen goes into the pot," says Claire
Terrelonge, a Jamaican friend of mine. "Think of it as tropical fried
rice." A hint of coconut milk endows the dish with a taste of the
Caribbean.
In a large saucepan, heat the oil. Add the onion, bell pepper,
zucchini, mushrooms, and chili pepper, if desired, and saute for
about 7 minutes. Add the water, coconut milk, rice, winter squash,
and seasonings. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 15 to 20
minutes.
Stir in the greens and beans and cook for a few minutes more. Turn
off the heat, fluff the rice, and let sit on the stove top for about
10 minutes.
