Recipe by Anne Sainz

This is one of those recipes that evolved over time. It is adapted from a recipe I got from my mother-in-law many years ago. I simplified the preparation and changed some of the ingredients to match our Nutritarian eating style.

DIRECTIONS

Add all ingredients to a large pot (at least 5 qt) and mix well.
Bring broth to a boil, stirring a few times to distribute rice and prevent sticking on the bottom.
Turn heat down, cover and cook on low about 70 minutes or until rice is done. Mix 2 or 3 times while cooking, adding small amounts of water if needed.
