Lovely rice. I cooked Basmati rice for this. That with the lemon and veggies made a grand side to the salmon and complimented the veggies as well. The one thing I did differently was to put the celery and onions in the microwave with a tiny bit of water instead of using any fat. It was light, fluffy and flavorful (as easy) what more could you ask!

I loved this! When I cook rice, it is usually brown rice and with just the 2 of us, I cook 6 to 8 cups at a time. It is then packaged in 1 cup bags and frozen. When needed it is quickly defrosted in the microwave and extras added in. This made having a rice pilaf ready in less than 10 minutes. Made for *PAC Spring 2008*
