Zucchini Rice

Can you tell it's zucchini season??? Woo Hoo... one of my favorite veggies!  This is a quick easy way to sneak some veggies into this awesome side dish. 

2 Cups Rice

3 Tablespoons Cooking Oil

1 Zucchini

1/4 Onion

3 Cloves of Garlic

1 Handful of Cilantro

4 Tablespoons Chicken Bouillon Powder

2 Teaspoons Cumin

4 Cups of Water

Put the Zucchini, onion, garlic and cilantro in food processor.

In a large skillet start to lightly toast the rice with the oil.

Pulse the veggies until ground up... 

Add to the rice and oil and cook for about 2-3 minutes... 

This is the powder I use... 

Add the water, bouillon, and cumin... Bring to boil and 

Cover until most of the water is absorbed.

I know its hard to tell... but turn off the heat when most of the water is absorbed... 

AND LEAVE COVERED FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES!!!

This is what the beautiful rice looks like. 

MMMmmm
