Boring Rice Tasty Tricks

Rice and broccoli

 

Replace low sodium chicken broth for the water when preparing your rice.

When it gets to the point where you simmer, throw in a handful of small broccoli florets.

To make it even heartier, after the water has absorbed, throw in a cup of shredded cheddar cheese and stir until the cheese is melted.

Or, stir in some sweet and sour sauce instead of the cheese for an oriental flair. I love this one. I could eat a ton of sweet and rice with broccoli.

Or, throw in a cup of salsa instead.

Rice is really versatile, and cheap.
