Tips
Feel free to revamp to cut the sugar content. I wanted to use crushed tomatoes with no salt added, but we were out, which is why I used ketchup. Do that, and save calories, salt, and sugar. Garnish with fresh sesame seeds before serving if desired.
Directions
Throw everything but the rice into the crockpot. Cook it on high for first hour, and turn it to low for the last two hours. Take whatever time you need to prepare brown rice before serving.
