I don't remember where I found this, but it's a staple around our house now. It's chewy, kind of nutty, and very filling. It's also very easy (as long as I think about it at least an hour before I need it!) It's an easy side dish as is, upgrades easily to a pilaf (see directions below), works well under meats and sauces, leftovers go great in soup, and it is even good with a little sugar, cinnamon, and cream over it for breakfast or dessert! So many possibilities with so few ingredients. ;o)
Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked brown rice
1/2 cup bulgur
3 cups chicken broth or 3 cups vegetable broth or 3 cups water
Directions:
1. Combine in med saucepan, bring to boil for 3-4 minutes.
2. Cover, reduce heat to low; steam approx 40 min.
