Here are some ideas to liven up plain rice (brown or white). Try adding:
- Cilantro and chiles for a Southwestern flavor
- Chopped spinach and Parmesan cheese
- Red beans, "lite" coconut milk and thyme
- Tomatoes, green peppers, hot sauce, and steamed shrimp
- Slivered almonds, fresh fruit, cinnamon, cloves and ginger
- Stuff cooked rice into vegetables like seeded butternut squash or large tomatoes. Then bake 15-20 minutes. Top with Parmesan if desired.
