I am posting though I am disgusted. I prefer the brightness and crunch of slightly sauteed celery and I love the mushrooms freshness too. So, it only makes sense to me to add them last; however, if you don't care about crunch and brightness just add them into your rice while cooking. Oh, and I also tried adding 1/2 cup of fresh squeezed orange juice in place of the chicken broth. That must of changed the color of the rice....no didn't like that either. LOL
