RICE?!?!

I've tried and eaten all types of rice and keep 4 types at home: white, brown, wild and aborial. While there are taste/texture variations, their nutritional and caloric content is all about the same.
Eat what you prefer w/in your caloric limits and you'll be fine.
I mainly eat long grain white because it is the cheapest, easy to find and what I grew up eating. I make a pot at a time, store leftovers in the frig and reheat portions til the pot is finished (goes bad, whichever comes 1st).
I vary the portion size based on my cal limit from 1/2 to 1 cup per serving (100-200 cals) and eat none at all if it will put me over my limit.0 -
I buy the frozen packs of brown rice from Trader Joe's for convenience. 3 mins in the microwave and it is DONE. I like the texture of the organic better but will buy the plain. I also have used the frozen jasmine with Indian dishes, also good.0

I buy a big bag of Kirkland (Costco) brand basmati rice. If I'm in a pinch I'll buy Tilda brand (Walmart)0

When I want rice, I eat real rice, but I do love the "riced" cauliflower blend - the one that includes riced cauliflower, broccoli and carrots, too. I don't eat them as fake rice, though. I use them in spring rolls and potstickers. No more tedious chopping. Super convenient. They also work in creamy soups. It's described as "riced" because it has been processed through a ricer, which chops things into fine particles about the size of rice grains. I guess people cued into the name and decided to use it as actual rice, though? LOL.
This is actually a genius idea!1
