Brown Rice Pilaf
Ingredients:-:- 2 cups brown rice
:- 5 1/2 cups water
:- 2 TBSP dried red and green peppers, or 1/2 red, 1/2 green pepper, diced
:- 2 TBSP dried carrots or 1 fresh diced carrot
:- 2 TBSP dried celery, or 2 ribs fresh celery, chopped fine
:- 2 TBSP dried onion, or 1/4 cup diced fresh onion
:- pinch pepper
:- 2 TBSP chicken or beef boullion, or soy sauce
:- 1 TBSP dried or fresh parsley
*Throw all that into a pot. Bring to a boil and then lower heat, cover, and simmer for about 40-50 minutes.
*Keep an eye on it at the last to make sure it does not get too dry. Rice grains will start to split when they are done.
*Add cooked, cubed beef or chicken to make a full meal. Serving size is 2/3 cup, or 3/4 cup if meat is added.
You can make this in a rice cooker also, using smaller quantities of ingredients. Make sure you add enough water to compensate for the dried veggies, they will absorb quite a bit.
Create a full meal by adding beef, chicken, beans, or other protein.
