I got another opportunity to use my fancy rice cooker.  I can't believe that I used to make rice in a pot.  I was in the middle of doing a trainer session when I hopped off, threw the rice in the cooker, and jumped back on while it was doing the work.  It doesn't get any better than that. :)

This is fairly simple to make and was quite tasty although I think I might add chicken on my next attempt.  What can I say?  Not really much to add, it's something new although I feel like I've made something similar in the past.  I'm feeling lazy this morning or else I'd do a search.  Given the limited number of ingredients I use and the large number of recipes I've cooked, I'm certain there's something similar.

Brown Rice & Tomato Salad

- one cup of brown rice, uncooked
- 1/4 cup of rice vinegar
- two tsp brown sugar
- one tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- three large tomatoes, seeded and diced
- one cup of basil leaves, chopped

Cook rice according to instructions and move to a large bowl.

In a small bowl, combine vinegar, brown sugar, olive oil and pepper.  Pour over rice, add tomatoes and basil, and thoroughly combine.  Serve at room temperature.
