Great recipe! I steamed some veggies and mixed them into the cooked rice. I cooked the rice in chicken bouillon instead of water. Yummy! - 1/6/16

Hi There(: now they have the steaming bags, and there great, you could separate them if you wish, but all your veg. is done at the same time, if you thought some of the softer veg. needed to be done do them separate(: - 4/12/08
