As I said earlier, it took some getting used to the taste of brown rice, but now I like it. I have put this rice in soups and have made Spanish rice with it. I also have put in under teriyaki chicken and orange chicken. I like the convenience of this rice. When I add it to soup I do it after the soup is hot. The rice is already cook and only needs to be heated up. The hot soup will heat the rice. I like everything about Minsley Cooked Brown Rice. It is convenient and easy to fix. It's organic and has a good taste. There is no added artificial ingredients. Overall I give it four and a half stars out of five.

Post a CommentP.S. Try adding some shredded cheddar cheese to the rice while it's still hot. Delicious.
Minsley's Pre Cooked Brown Rice Bowls are FANTASTIC.
The problem is that Costco has stopped carrying them and I am extremely disappointed and worried about how to find them.
Any suggestions?
Pelagia, yes. I've bought raw brown rice before. It came in a ten pound sack. You may be able to find it in a smaller sack. Thank you for reading my article.
I like the stickiness of your brown rice,is there a raw brown rice in the market.
Thanks for stopping by, Sherri. I found something I like better than this brown rice. It's called rice melody. It's a combination of brown rice, red rice and wild rice (although wild rice is actually a grain). It's frozen and already cooked. Simply throw it into the microwave. I have added it to hamburger. I haven't tried it yet, but I imagine it will work well in soups.
Thanks for the review. I'm starting to like brown rice:)
I still prefer white rice for breakfast. The cinnamon I put in for flavor is hard to taste in brown rice.
Yes, both "brown" and "organic" are much healthier - thanks for the tips here Richard! You sure have some handy advice. =)
I have it a few times a week with medium salsa. Try it or go milder or wilder. A good way to get what you need with out lots of preservatives and junk.
Sounds good! :-)
