This is sooo easy and tastes great! I halved the recipe, added courgette and mushrooms, took out brocoli and cabbage as I tend to get sick of them while dieting, I also only used 1/4 cup brown rice just to bring the calories down a bit more. I really enjoy this for lunch, I tend to get sick of salad so its a nice change. I don't cook it as long as directed, so mines ready in an hour or so. It is tastier the next day but nice after cooking also, Great Recipe!! Thanks
