Years ago, I started making batches of short-grain brown rice over the weekend to use during the week. I always had it on hand to add to or accompany whatever I was cooking. This dish emerged as one of my regulars. It’s easy and filling and an all-round great way to start any day. If you don’t want to make the rice in advance, don’t worry. Fortunately, it’s now easy to buy prepared brown rice either in the freezer section (you reheat it in the microwave) or even in the rice aisle. Just be sure to read the label—you don’t want to buy a variety that contains added fats.
