This is a delicious taste treat for summer time meals. Goes well with chicken kabobs, orange chicken, anything light and tropical.
Twitchy's Tasty Tropical Rice
Prepare a batch of white rice as instructed in the sticky.
Half a red pepper, chopped
Half Yellow Pepper, chopped
1 can Pineapple chunks, chopped - Save the juice!
Mango chunks, Chopped
Craisins * if you like them!
A handful of Peas, cooked al dente or frozen peas thawed to room temperature.
Chop all the ingredients to uniform pieces. Adjust amounts of each to your liking comparative to the rice.
Make rice as above and when you come to the last part to steam it with the olive oil, add in about 1/4 cup or more of the pineapple juice instead of the olive oil, add the veggies and let steam as directed.
Add veggies a little at a time until you like the 'look' of it. Veggie to rice ratio is at your discretion.
This is a delicious summer side dish.
