WOW!! SUPER!! BEST RICE DISH WE HAVE HAD IN LONG TIME!! My husband and I absolutely enjoyed this recipe. I tried it twice, the first time didn't find 2 cups of broth to be enough (dried out, rice not cooked). 2nd time I used 3 1/4 cups of broth and it was absolutely perfect (cooked 25mins). As my husband puts it, definitely a keeper!!!

<p>I live with my husband, four cats, and a sweet mutt named Jada in Scarborough, Ontario, where I work as an elementary school administrative assistant. I have a 31 year old daughter who lives with her boyfriend in nearby Don Mills, along with my sweet granddogs, Frankie and Turbo. I would have to say that my passion is animals, since I have so many of them! <br /><img src=http://images.quizilla.com/H/h0t5auce/1108834307_brown_answer.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/532663/cookswithcattitude.JPG alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/CalendarGirlsSwap2009.jpg alt= /> <br /><br />If I had a month off work to do what I please, I would first catch up on my sleep and then just have fun - see a few movies and maybe take a couple of short trips - something that wouldn't break the bank - lol!</p>
