brown rice, that doesn't taste like shit.

I hate brown rice.  I have given it so many tries and every time I end up thinking it tastes like dirty oatmeal.  Weird, right?  Anyways, I finally cooked something up that makes brown rice actually enjoyable.

Here you go!

First off, cook your rice girrrllll:

In a LARGE pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil.  In the meantime, run 1 cup of brown rice under cold water.  When your water is a'boiling, throw your rice in! Cover it, but don't cover it all the way.  (Pics below!)  Turn to medium-high heat and leave it for 30 minutes.

While all of the magic is happening, do this:

Grab a saute pan and throw in 1 can of diced tomatoes, garlic, onions, and peppers.  Honestly, throw in whatever veggies sound delish to you.  I add cayenne pepper because I like to live on the edge and keep my life hot, hot, hot!

Next, strain your brown rice. Don't rinse! And lastly, return rice to the pot, cover lid completely, remove from heat, and let sit for 10 minutes.  Let it get it all steamy!

Last but not least... remove your rice and throw it in to your veggie tomatoey goodness.  Mix it all up!

Bam, you are done!  No more choking down nasty brown rice that tastes like dirty oatmeal.

Cheers to not discriminating brown rice, all you white rice lovers!
