Oh, what an excellent idea! Looks terrific. I've got some leftover brown rice in the fridge right now. Hope you don't mind if I "health" it up one more bit!

Made this again last night but didn't have mushrooms and added red bell pepper in the saute of onions (sweet, this time) and garlic. Very good!
