Did you know that brown rice has 50 less calories than regular white rice? And loads more fiber! So my mom went to the store last week and brought home a bag of brown rice. I was very skeptical to say the least. I remember when I was a kid trying it and hating it...so I wasn't sure if I was going to have the same feelings. Anyways, I followed the package directions and it does take a significantly longer time to cook than white rice. The meal for that night was honey glazed salmon fillets upon a bed of brown rice with a side of boiled veggies. To sum it up in one word....DELICIOUS! I am now a brown rice fan and I am recommending it to all of you new dieters. My dad actually said he liked the brown rice better than the white rice! I couldn't believe my ears!
