Mike and I picked up an Aroma rice cooker last year that has some great features.  One of them, “quick cook”, allows you to saute veggies with the rice – this is a great way to add some extra flavor and zing to your rice dish.  Of course the stove-top method would work, too, but if you’ve ever cooked in Southern Arizona in May, you understand my desire NEED to limit my use of the stove.

Here’s a tip: toast those keto bread “butts” (unless you’re the kind of psychopath who actually eats them 😂), give them a blitz in the processor with some keto cracker crumbs, and keep them in a jar in the pantry (up to a month) or freezer (up to six months). Season them with herbs and fresh grated parmesan and use them in your favorite chicken tender recipe. You’re welcome! 😘
