Introduction

A Great Big Thanks to my nephew John and his wife Carley for this wonderful idea to make complete meals in a rice cooker. This especially helps on days when my chronic fatigue is kicking in.

Minutes to Cook: 20

Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

3 cups brown rice (long grain)

1/2 10 oz. mixed frozen vegetables

1/2 cup mild cheddar cheese (diced)

3 tsp. chicken or beef bouillon

Tips

Great for the summer when you don't want the heat of the oven. Drizzle a little virgin olive oil over the top to add a little extra flavor and YUM!

Directions

I used the 3 cup setting on my cooker (3cups dry brown rice = 6 cups cooked rice).
After adding dry rice, add frozen vegetables and bouillon.
Turn on to cook. When the rice is in the warming stage, add the cheese. Cover again and let sit 5 minutes or so. Long enough to melt the cheese.
Garnish with parsley or fresh basil and you are done!
