BEST BROWN RICE MEAL
When I was a kid my dad came home form work one day and told my mom we weren't going to eat red meat anymore. This coming from a meat and potatoes type of guy was quite surprising to say the least. At that time my mom switched from white rice to brown as she feared we would need an extra nutrient boost. That change didn't make me to happy...brown rice was not at the top of my favorites list. So one day we jazzed it up a bit. Hope you like what we came up with. My family does. (Note: We eat this as a main dish, not a side that is why the serving size is more then a 1/2 cup)
