Vegetable Enhanced Steamed Rice

1 C long grain brown rice
1 C of chicken broth
2 C of water, divided
1/4 C green onions, chopped
1/4 C red bell pepper, diced
1/4 C French style green beans
1/2 C frozen corn

Place the rice into an ovenproof casserole dish.
Pour the chicken broth and 1/2 C of water over the rice.
Pour the remaining water into the cooker and place the trivet into the water.
Place the casserole dish onto the trivet.
Bring the pressure to high and cook 30 minutes.
Allow the pressure to fall on its own.
After the pressure has fallen add the bell pepper, green beans and corn to the casserole.
Replace the lid on the cooker but do not lock.
Allow the rice and vegetables to steam for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender.

Short grain rice can be used but it will take a little longer to cook. Add an additional 7 minutes to the cooking time if using short grain rice. When cooking rice always allow the pressure to fall on its own. This will ensure the rice has plenty of time to soften without overcooking.

Tomato Brown Rice Salad

2 cups cooked brown rice
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, cut in half
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tsp honey
1 shallot, minced
1/2 cup light olive oil
1/2 tsp sea or kosher salt
1/4 tsp fresh black pepper

In large bowl, toss together, gently, the rice and tomatoes.
In separate bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, honey, and shallot, until combined.
While whisking, slowly pour in olive oil, whisking steadily until dressing starts to thicken or emulsify.
Sprinkle in the salt and pepper, and mix until just combined.
Pour dressing over the rice and tomato mixture, tossing until well coated.
Put in sealed container and keep cool (may be refrigerated but doesn't have to be) until ready to eat.
