Recipe below for how I make the PERFECT rice on the stove! No special equipment required, just a pot with a lid.

P.S. – add some cooked riced cauliflower into the rice after it is done cooking and you will never notice it is there! Perfect way to get some veggies in!

I always use Public brand extra long grain rice; it is 4 points per serving.
