    MY THOUGHTS:

    One staple item that we seem to eat a lot is rice.  My boys love rice and since they can be picky eaters, I tend to push what they like on them.  I am not even sure why they like rice so much but they do.  I tried to switch to typical whole grain pasta that is brown since I was looking for a healthier version but my boys didn’t want to have anything to do with it.  Well now with Uncle Ben’s Whole Grain White Rice, I can sneak in fiber and whole grains.

    My boys can’t even taste a difference and actually my husband didn’t notice either.  I just slipped it on their plates and the whole box was eaten up!  We used it with stir fry and it was delicious!  I love that Uncle Bens has made this newest addition and it is now easier for me to add healthy side dishes.  There are also other varieties of Uncle Bens Whole Grain White including, Brocolli Cheddar, Chicken, Taco Style, Sweet Tomato, and Garden Vegetable.

    BUY IT: Uncle Ben’s Whole Grain White products will be available at grocery stores nationwide for a suggested price of $2.79

      I love rice with all veggie stir fry dishes. Sometimes just rice and lemon pepper is yummy too!
      Thanks!

      I love gumbo over rice, but I most often use rice in casseroles with chicken, baby peas, white sauce and cheddar cheese. Thanks so much!

      I like rice, sometimes with only soy sauce…but also like it with curry dishes, stir frys, and baked with vegies, cheese, tofu.

      Thank you. 🙂

      I like my rice as a stuffing for Cornish Game Hens. That served with a few bottles of cold beer. Good eating and good drinking.

      I lived in Hawaii for 9 years, so I love my rice with just about everything. But, one of my favorite ways to eat rice is with Teriyaki chicken and with the Teriyaki sauce poured over the rice.

      We eat a lot of rice and like it with most everything. We ALWAYS have rice with salmon and tilapia (and usually have broccoli on the side).

      I just like it by itself because I tend to watch calories and sodium. So, I have it as a snack when I am hungry. My husband and boys love it with my home made Kung Pao dish, so they would definitely not know the difference since it would be under the chicken.

      Can’t wait to check this out when it hits the stores.

      I like to make my rice a sweet treat sometimes by cooking it, draining it & adding 1 tbsp splenda & 2 teasponns cinnamon to it. Diabetic friendly little treat I think.
