Why not make your own stock or base? I have a soup book with great recipes, but you can find instructions all over the net for beef, chicken and vegetable stocks. I do turkey stock as well. It just requires a bit of time, which you can use doing other things. Freeze large batches in small amounts for later, always comes in handy.

I make 6 cups at a time and use for lunch all week. I sometimes throw in a can of Rotel or use Mrs dash or sazon. I also love to use 1 cup brown rice with 1/2 cup frozen broccoli florets with a dash of salt and dash of pepper0

Yep. Salsa is my fall-back on anything if I can't think of anything else. The hotter, the better.0 -
I mix mine with low sodium chopped canned tomatoes, grilled chicken and spinach. top w a little parm. I also make a bunch and freeze in single serve baggies. very handy.0

i have brown rice daily for dinner.
once its cooked, i usually mix in 1/2 - 1 cup of zapped frozen veggies, add a dollop of sriracha, mix it up until it becomes a colourful mess, and then accompany that with some form of protein.0 -
I'm adding new foods to my menus to try and shake this plateau I'm stuck on. One of my additions will be brown rice. But normally I add tons of butter and salt to season my rice. Obviously a bad choice. So I was looking for suggestions on how you season yours without adding tons of calories!

I love t add fresh cilantro and salsa... Delicious! I encourage you to switch to black rice, higher fiber and protein and to try farro... Kind of a light nutty taste which is great cold with a little balsamic and cucumbers and tomato. Those whole grains have a little more taste I find0

with a pretty pink bow, of course.0

I use some of this:
Then I add spices appropriate to whatever it's being served with, usually herbes de provence or garam masala, sometimes some finely chopped onions, garlic and shredded carrot. If I'm going with garam masala, sometimes I add lentils. If I'm using herbes de provence, I sometimes add wild rice.
But my favorite rice is mekong flower brown rice, and it needs nothing but a bit of salt, as it already has a very sweet, nutty flavor, kind of like jasmine rice.

I cook in chicken stock or chicken bullion and season with McCormick Salad Supreme. Gotta watch the sodium but salad supreme has a lot of great flavors that go well with rice. Also, a simple dash of cajun and/or chili powder is good depending on what type of dish you're making.0

If I'm not using it in a recipe or making a pilaf or something, I generally just use stock instead of water. I usually have some homemade stock in the freezer, but store bought works just as well.0
