*Please see Tips & Notes section.
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, bring the broth to a simmer. Stir in rice and simmer about 15 minutes, until rice is soft.

- Add chicken, shrimp or salmon, if desired. Feel free to throw in frozen vegetables such as snap peas, too. Season to taste with salt, pepper and chopped parsley.
Tips & Notes
Converted rice is brown rice that has been converted to a white rice texture, allowing it to cook faster. Another long-grain white rice will substitute, but converted rice has more fiber.
