This simple recipe is quickly prepared in the microwave and has all of the wonderful flavor that cumin and salsa have to offer. The addition of fresh squash makes for an interesting change of pace and a little extra nutrition in this twist on Spanish rice. Blessings...
Recipe:
1 cup chicken or beef broth
1 tsp. butter
1/4 tsp. ground cumin
1/8 tsp. salt
1 cup uncooked instant brown rice
1/4 cup salsa
1 medium zucchini or yellow summer squash, diced
Combine all ingredients in a microwave safe bowl; cover and cook on high power for about 10 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and squash is fork tender. Stir and serve.
Serves: 4
Note: The cooking time will vary if you use instant white rice and if squash is not added. If you make these changes, cook according to package directions because white rice cooks faster and squash adds extra moisture.
