Now that you see how good for you this new rice is, I know you are wondering, but how does it taste? 

Uncle Ben’s was nice enough to send me a few boxes of their Whole Grain White Rice to try. Since it was red beans and rice night, my boys’ favorite, I decided to try this rice in place of our usual.  They didn’t even notice a difference in flavor or consistency, and all cleaned their plates!  I also shared a box with my mom and she also enjoyed the rice, and she is not a fan of brown rice.  She agreed that this rice tastes like our regular white rice, but has the benefits of whole grain goodness.

 I really enjoyed the flavor of the rice and the texture was good.  My favorite part of this rice is that it cooks up in only 10 MINUTES!!   Uncle Ben’s Whole Grain White Rice is now available at grocery stores and mass retailers across the country.

    My family’s favorite is Lemon Rice. It goes well with Chicken or Fish. I make it with either Uncle Ben’s white rice or brown rice. The ingredients are water, rice, chicken bullion cube, (optional clove of garlic, minced). Cook as directed. As soon as the rice is done, while it is HOT, stir in 2 T. chopped fresh parsley and the juice of 1/2 lemon. Yum Yum

    My fiance LOVES Rice and Beans with sausage. I usually cook it for him at least once a week.

    “House Fried Rice” ( I throw in veggies, meats, seafood..everything but the house! LOL)

    We like to put stir fried vegetables and tofu (flavored with soy and pepper flakes) over a bed of rice.

    My family’s fav rice dish is diced cooked chicken with mushroom soup and rice — it’s more of a concoction (just mix everything together & pop it in the crockpot on low for the day).

    We have a sausage and rice recipe that’s pretty good. My daughter likes plain rice with butter.
