This is really good. I love the textures of the brown rice and beans together. I would like to make this with red bell peppers too for the colour and sweetness. Great recipe, thanks!

This was okay for me, I loved the fact that it was healthy and it made a nice filling lunch but I couldn't say that I loved it hence the 3 stars. I love trying new things though so thanks for posting. Made for ZWT 4.

Delicious! I love that it uses nonfat yogurt to create the sauce rather than mayo or sour cream. What a delightful, healthy dish!

I made this using for the curry powder using recipe #174350 I used orange yogurt. Go figure that is what I had! I also was short on the brown basmati rice.The rice had a nice chewy texture, the beans smooth and everything gave lots of flavor. I skipped the celery. Thanks!
