Easy Lemon Brown Rice
This fluffy and delicious lemon brown rice is so good you will forget it's actually healthy!
I love a good fluffy, flavorful rice. When it's good, its GOOD. Right?! So I'm super excited to share this lemon brown rice recipe today, because it's EASY, comes together really fast, and it's good for you. The perfect thing to accompany a delicious dinner!
The lemon and garlic flavors add so much to the brown rice, that it doesn't taste like brown rice anymore. Which, for me is a plus. I don't hate brown rice. I just, you know, prefer white rice. What can I say?! It also just looks really pretty with some lemon slices in it. If I don't say so myself...
