Staple Corner: Brown Rice and Millet

Though it's always a treat to try new dishes, most cooks have a ready supply of staple recipes on hand, and Lisa's Kitchen is no different. A balanced and satisfying vegetarian diet based on whole foods is relatively easy to sustain, so take care to serve up a grain with your beans, especially if your meal includes few dairy products.
Brown Rice and Millet

1/2 cup brown rice
1/2 cup millet
2 cups of water


Soak the rice and millet in the water overnight.

Bring the rice and millet to a boil in the soaking water and immediately reduce to a simmer and cover the pot.

Cook for about 30 - 40 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.

Let sit for 5 minutes, fluff with a fork and serve as is or sprinkle with a bit of tamari or soy sauce.
