OMGOSH! This was sooo YUMMY! My hubby and youngest son who are very picky when it comes to rice ate this up sooo fast! I've made it twice this week so far! I didn't add any nuts, and I added 2 1/2 cups of water with 3 tsp chicken bouillon instead... and it had plenty of flavor!

I gave it a 3 because my family found it to be very bland. Will definately make it again but will add more seasoning.

This is very good. My whole family liked this recipe. Sometimes it is not easy to get them to eat brown rice.

Very good and healthful. Needs a little more salt. Will make again for sure!

The flavor was great! However, I replaced the walnuts with sliced almonds... this enabled the crunch factor with just a different flavor and oh so good!!

I didn't have celery so I used green pepper instead. I omited the oil and used a spray coating to cut calories. It was very good this way and I will make it again. diann
