Edamame Brown Rice

Oh boy!  I guess I was really busy last Monday prepping for our trip.  We went camping and just got home yesterday.  I had last week's  blog in draft form and forgot to hit send.  Sorry it's a week late.  Hope you enjoy Edamame Brown Rice.

Here's a delicious quick recipe for busy mamas that goes well with any of the Azuki BeaN main dish.  Try it with Hawaiian chicken or shrimp lettuce wraps.  I love anything that can be put into a rice cooker, you press the start button and it is warm and ready when you are.

Edamame Brown Rice

Ingredients:
2 C Brown Rice
2 1/2 C Water
1 Cup Edamame
1/4 tsp salt

Directions:
1.  Wash Rice
2.  Put in rice, water, edamame and salt in the rice cooker
3.  Soak for 20 minutes (or use hot water if you don't have time to soak)
4.  Press start button
5.  It will be ready in about 20 minutes
6.  If you don't have a rice cooker, place ingredients in a pot and cook on medium heat for about
     20 minutes.

It is so easy and delicious!  I just gobbled my rice up with roast chicken from the grocery store.  Perfect side for a busy day.
