Apple Brown Rice Stuffing

Rated:

Healthy brown rice instead of boring white bread stuffing. Crisp apples complement the nutty flavor of the brown rice and bran.

1 1/2 cups uncooked brown rice

Great Pork Chop Stuffing

Used as pork chop stuffing with 1/2 apple juice and 1/2 water. Everyone liked it. Used the leftover stuffing for lunch but added more raisins, almonds, bran and apple juice.

Apple Brown Rice Stuffing

We really like rice so when I made this but I didn't use it as stuffing; it made a gread side dish. This would go well with most meats but it is especially good with chicken.

brown rice stuffing

I'm always looking for a new recipe outside of the box for brown rice. This one fit the menu. It was great w/ the pork roast I served the first time and it was great to take the leftovers for lunch the next day.

okay

I was a little disappointed in this recipe--it was way to sweet. Next time I will replace most of the apple juice with water or chicken broth.
