I'm on a cutting diet right now and eating small amounts of brown rice for my carbs. Is there any way to make this shite taste better without adding too many calories?

substitute water for chicken broth when you are cooking it. Franks Hot Sauce

Throw some steamed broccoli or carrots in there with it man. Add a little pepper, too.

I love brown rice. Rinse, toast it, then use chicken broth instead of water if you want flavor.

My stepdaughter's husband is a bodybuilder, and he eats white rice or grits (timed with his workouts) on a cut. He doesn't touch brown rice.

Start with 1/3 brown rice and 2/3 white.
Then go half and half.
Then go 2/3 brown and 1/3 white.
It works.

These are great on rice, can't imagine they add many calories.

Whatever the hell the Hibachi chef adds to his rice when he cooks it..calls it "coca cola"..

Wild rice tastes better and has a better texture than brown rice. Takes about 35 minutes to cook. serve with sautéed mushrooms and butter.

No, it just plain fricking sucks.

Id rather not eat rice than eat brown rice.
Further more white rice 1-2 month not gonna hurt you.

Find out what Izzos uses in their brown rice and do that. Their brown rice is seasoned and has cilantro and probably lime.. It's super legit

I started a low carb diet a couple months ago, so I'm not eating rice much. Most of my meals are around 25-30 carbs. So when you consider that white rice is 49 g and brown is 39, I just go with white. The difference is not significant enough for me to suffer through brown rice. I'm either eating white or not eating rice.

I would sauté some garlic in the pot with some olive oil and salt & pepper, then add your rice and water.

Start with that then build on it.
