Sage and Parmesan Rice

Mikekey's Note:

A nice side dish for poultry. I made a change in the rice/broth ratio, and cooking method on recommendation of some of the reviewers, and after trying it myself again. This changed the servings to 4 instead of 2. Thanks to all reviewers for your input!

This was so yummy... my husband even said over and over again how good it was, and he's a little tricky to please. I used a rice medley and cooked it in the rice maker using the amount of liquid recommended on the rice container. For the broth, I used homemade veggie broth with Better than Bouillon added... and I used 2 tbsp fresh sage from the garden.

I doctored this up with leftover turkey from thanksgiving and made a good "turkey and rice" meal. I also added a little "heat" for flavor to help the blandness. I'd make this again! Good Thanksgiving leftover casserole!

Excellant! I modified it a little bit. I just used water but I added a small diced red onion and a teaspoon of minced roasted garlic..Threw it in my rice cooker and it was awesome!
