Instructions for Vegatable Pilaf

Source: Healthy Meals in Minutes Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 45 minutes 1. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic and onion; cook, stirring frequently for 2 minutes. Add rice, stirring to coat. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes. 2. Stir in broth and cumin; cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes. 3. Add broccoli, lima beans, and water to skillet; cover. Cook until broccoli is tender, about 8 minutes. Add red and green bell peppers. Cover and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. 4. Place cheese strips over vegetables and rice. Cover and cook until cheese melts, about 1 minute. Serve immediately. Cook Tips: Coating the rice with the oil prevents it from sticking. Using a wooden spoon, stir the rice into the onion mixture, coating it well. Try other types of rice for quicker cooking or slightly different textures and flavor. Short grain rice has a higher starch content and often sticks together. Long grain rice produces a lighter rice dish. Brown rice has a nutritious bran coating with a nutty flavor. Usse instant brown rice or boil-in-a-bag rice. Also consider packaged pilaf or flavored rice mixes. Health Check: Lima beans are high in fiber and folic acid. Brown rice has three times as much fiber as white rice. Peppers are rich in vitamins A and C. Posted to TNT - Prodigys Recipe Exchange Newsletter by "Lisa Whittington" on Jun 29, 1997
