TICO RICE (VEG*N & BROWN RICE)



Tico Rice (Veg*n & Brown Rice) image

Found in a guide to Costa Rica, this makes a nice change from plain rice and is pretty simple to prepare. I tweaked slightly to use brown rice, most versions use white, and most versions use chicken broth. Use any way you would normally use cooked rice!
