Another Vegetable Paella
"I have served this using brown rice and whole wheat cous cous both are very good. A neighbor who wanted the recipe made it using spaghetti and said her family enjoyed it that way. Just goes to show that there is never just one way to fix anything. It takes me about 30 minutes to wash and prep everything but after that it goes really fast."

I made this with my supper tonight and the veggies were perfect! There just seemed like there was something missing with the rice..it was kind of bland. Next time, I might use veg. broth to boil the rice. Thanks for the simple, delicious recipe! -
This was a nice simple dish that my DH and I both enjoyed. I seasoned with a little Recipe#53039 and sesame oil. Thank you Annacia!
