Tammy’s Comments:

You can use white rice or a mixture of white and brown rice for this recipe.  You can also pre-make the entire recipe and freeze it, so you just have to re-heat it.  But it tastes fresher if you make it per the directions above.  And it only takes about 10 minutes, so it’s very quick and easy!
