Made this last night and I loved it. I added a little lemon sea salt and black pepper and two cloves of garlic. I wasnt sure if the orange juice needed to be fresh or from concentrate so I used fresh and threw in the pulp too. - 4/1/10

I thought it was really Good, but a little tangy for my husband. Next time I will try no lemon juice. - 1/4/10

Very different taste! Once my taste buds adjusted, I loved it! I did not have squash so I used a red pepper instead! - 7/27/08

This was not my favorite. My mom loved it though. It was just a little strange for me. My son didn't like it either. - 2/14/08

I absolutely loved this rice. I served it with the Cajun Maple Mahi Mahi recipe and it complimented the meal very well. I did cook the rice a little longer than what the package said and it turned out perfect! - 1/10/08
