Ingredients:
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup brown rice
  • 1 can (14 ounces) tomatoes (Italian style with oregano, garlic and basil)
How to make it:

  2. Put rice in your rice cooker with the recommended amount of water minus half a cup.
  3. Add the seasoned tomatoes and their juices and cook like you normally would in your rice cooker.
  4. It doesn't need extra salt because of all the sodium in the canned tomatoes.
  5. The tomatoes keep it from drying out.
  6. Very tasty! :P
