What are some of the best rice for us to consume? Thanks

I've tried a spoonful of rice and it just doesn't sit good so staying away from it

I'm able to tolerate brown rice in very very small amounts. I make sure protein is first, no drinking liquids 30 minutes before or after eating. I am post op May 2008...suffered a blockage and almost died 11 days after my first surgery. Had emergency procedure to fix and love where I'm at right now and would do it all over again!

Haven't had any yet and am 4.5 months out. My doc says it's not very nice to the pouch

Rice still doesn't work for me.

I eat basmati. Can handle about 5 tablespoons.

I've had about a tablespoon of brown. I would not do more then that just out of fear it puffs up.

Rice = low protein/high carb. I stay away. Try a little quinoa if you're really jonesing for grains...

Moofish...I like this idea. You are right on the money.

I make a "salad" with chicken, quinoa, herbs, spices, and citrus juices. I don't eat grains very much, but when I do, it's a small amount of quinoa or a little bit of oats...

Do you use Mayo?

nope---citrus juice and some type of oil (coconut, grapeseed, olive...depends on the flavor profile I want) Yummy!

This is what I made for a holiday grain dish:

Saute a bunch of chopped shallots/onions in oil and add spices ( I used garam masala, coriander, and cumin). Cook till spices are toasty. Add to cooked quinoa (I used red) with grapefruit juice, chopped pistachios and dried cherries, and chopped parsley. Everyone loved this...

Sounds good. I like quinoa but havent done much with it due to just being my daughter and I and she wont eat it. Sam's club has a big bag of it cheap. Maybe I should try it in meatloaf

It works great in meatloaf! Also, as a hot cereal in the morning.

I have tried quinoa flakes and they are not so exciting
