Energy Breakfast Rice

This keeps the afternoon slump at bay. An alternative to oatmeal which has a moderate GI value of around 60 (without sugar), brown basmati rice is lower at around 45. There are also some additional nutritional aspects to rice bran. I like this cooked in water and dressed with oregano oil.

What you need

1. 1 cup brown basmati rice, uncooked
2. 1 3/4 cups water
3. 1/2 tsp kosher salt

How to make it

1. Bring water to a boil
2. Add salt and rice, return to boil and cover
3. Reduce heat to low and simmer 30 minutes
4. Turn off heat and let stand to finish with steaming for another 5 to 10 minutes.

Enjoy as is, or add fresh olive oil or oregano oil.
