1st of my shameless Mahatma plugs.

A while back I signed up to be a BzzAgent basically to get free stuff because I LOVE free stuff. As an agent all I have to do is talk about the free stuff they send me and report back that I've done so.

So.

Monday I got 2 free bags of Mahatma rice in the mail. They threw in some recipes so for dinner tonight I whipped up their Cranberry Brown Rice Dressing. It had toasted pecans (which I toasted myself thankyouverymuch), dried cranberries, and sauteed onions.

As far as rice side dishes go this was a good one. I had thirds. This doesn't actually mean the rice was good, which it was, it really just means I love to eat and have had a hard time getting back on the Weight Watchers train since returning from Mexico. But the dish was good. Loved the nuts in the rice, gave it a little flare.

.

Matt liked it but said it was heavy on the onions, cranberries and pecans. Basically he likes plain rice.

If anyone out there is looking to shake up their side dishes I recommend trying the Mahatma Brown Rice. I've got some coupons for free bags if anyones interested. End shameless plug 1.
