I received boxes of 3 different types of Uncle Ben’s Brown Rice:Uncle Ben’s Boil-in-Bag Whole Grain Brown Rice, Uncle Ben’s Fast & Natural Instant Brown Rice, Uncle Ben’s Natural Whole Grain Brown Rice.

I also received 5 recipes…none of which my family would like (too many veggies or foods mixed together). Since I had no recipes to use I just made the Boil-in-Bag rice as a side dish to go with grilled chicken breasts. For us, the brown rice didn’t have an appealing taste or texture.  The flavor is a bit nutty and we were not fond of it. Finally, after digging teriyaki sauce out of the refrigerator, we were able to eat it. I have looked for other recipes to use and I have had no luck finding anything that my picky family would even try. (I have one son that doesn’t like food mixed together so stir-frys, casseroles etc are out of the question). I know lots of families aren’t as picky as mine but this was one food experiment that went bad. I am still looking for recipes that my very picky family will eat. If you have a yummy recipe that you think we would like please link it to me in the comments. The extra boxes of rice-that we haven’t opened will be given to the families in my ladies group at church.

Disclosure: I wrote this review while participating in a blog campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Uncle Ben’s and received samples to facilitate my candid review. Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.
