Another idea. . . you can buy brown rice pasta – I like the macaroni shape – which cooks much quicker but gives that flavor/nutrition.

I also freeze brown rice. I make a big batch in the rice cooker and then measure out 1 cup portions into individual ziplock bags. When I am ready to eat it I unzip and microwave for about 2 minutes. Works great!

Stumbled upon your website when looking for Sensible Portions 8 Grain Crisps. Still looking for them. Sam’s had them at one time, but they discontinued them. Love your website and will visit often. Thanks for all the good tips.

I make brown rice in my rice cooker, so easy. I make huge batches and freeze it for later use. The key to freezing it is letting it completely cool before packaging up. I get the best results from vaccum sealing it. When ready to eat, just poke a hole in the bag and pop in the micro for a couple of minutes. Works like a charm.

Trader Joe’s makes an excellent frozen brown rice. Best I’ve tried, although I love Uncle Ben’s too!
