Best Easy Microwave Rice Recipes
PERFECT EASY MICROWAVE RICE
I got this recipe with the cookbook that came with my first Microwave and I've been using it ever since! The rice comes out perfect every time. No muss, no fuss and can be served in the casserole dish you cooked it in. You can also use this method for brown rice but increase your cooking time a little.

- Cover and put back in microwave and cook on medium this time for 15 minutes.
