Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 vegetable bouillon cubes -- up to 2

1 1/2 cups brown rice

4 ounces canned chopped mild green chilies

OR 1 to 2 small fresh hot chilies seeded -- seeded

and minced

1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro or parsley

OR 2 to 3 scallions -- thinly sliced

Freshly ground pepper -- to taste

 

A likely accompaniment to simple bean dishes or tortilla specialties.

 

1. Bring 4 cups water to a simmer with the bouillon cubes in a medium

saucepan. Stir in the rice, cover, and simmer gently until the water is

absorbed, about 35 minutes.

 

2. Stir in the remaining ingredients and continue to cook until everything

is heated through. Serve at once.

 

To make a quick version of this, use quick-cooking brown rice. Follow

package directions for a 6-serving portion.
