Brown Rice

It's always a good idea to substitute white rice with brown in the traditional recipes. Since there is less processing of its grains, it means more healthy nutrients present in it. Let us offer you several recipes with which to try out the possible combinations with brown rice, which is no less appetizing than white rice.

The first recipe you can prepare as a main course or garnish to grilled meat. To make it, you will need:

Brown Rice with Cheddar Cheese

Ingredients: 1 cup brown rice, 2-3 cups water, 1/2 head red onions, 1 red pepper, 1 cup of grated cheddar.

Preparation: Wash the rice and put it in the water in a pot. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat and let the rice simmer until it softens and absorbs the water.

Then cut up half an avocado and throw it in the bowl with the salad. Pour a dressing made of olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 tablespoon honey over the salad. Toss and serve the salad, sprinkled with fresh mint leaves.
