Lemon Pine Nut Rice Recipe By Dr. Ben Kim on June 15, 2007 This light and tangy rice dish is perfect for a satisfying summer meal. Try it with a side of sliced avocados or a tossed green salad with a balsamic vinaigrette dressing. The quantities listed in the ingredients section are meant to produce about four main dishes or six to eight smaller side dishes. Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups long grain rice (white or brown)3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil1/4 cup pine nuts6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice1 medium red bell pepper, finely chopped2 green onions, thinly sliced2 cloves of

garlic, finely chopped1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley or cilantroSea salt and pepper, to taste Directions: In a large pot, bring about 4 cups of salted water to a boil. Add the rice and boil until tender yet firm to the bite. Stir occasionally to make sure that rice does not stick to bottom of pot - it should take about 12 to 15 minutes. Once cooked, drain rice in a colander and set aside. While cooking rice, warm up extra virgin olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add pine nuts and cook for about 2 minutes - be sure to stir them continuously. Add red bell pepper, green onions, and garlic, and cook for another 5 minutes or until vegetables are softened. Add rice and toss well. Remove from heat and add lemon juice, parsley (or cilantro), salt, and pepper. Toss well. Serve immediately. This light and delicious rice dish is best served warm, with some creamy avocado slices on

the side. Enjoy! Suzi What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered. health/ http://suziesgoats.wholefoodfarmacy.com/ http://360./suziesgoats
