I tried this recipe only 'hoping' everyone would like it. I even made a back up meal just in case. The entire pan was gone in no time, and now I've made it 3 times this week! Its great stuff, even better as leftovers, warmed up on the skillet, so it get kind of crispy!
I make this all the time-it is yummy! I add lite smoked Hillshire sausage.
This was really easy and really good. I did use brown wild rice and increased the water to 2 cups and simmered for 30 minutes. I also added a red pepper, used baby zucchinis, squeezed half a lemon into the mixture, and had sliced avocado on the side. Will definitely do this again!
So enjoyed. Tasty and easy to make. I did add a small onion with the zucchine to start. Then used regular rice and 2 cups of water and once rice added I simmered for 30 minutes. Added a can of corn also but almost any vegetable could be added to preference. Left overs can be used in a wrap or perhaps as a cold salad.
I used organic wild rice, and an excellent olive oil. (canola is just not that good for you). Organic cheese and beans work well too.
Awesome! I did add corn. it came out great.
