Vegetables with Brown Rice

By: Patty Kile

"'When garden crops are plentiful, this is a delightful dish to serve. You can vary the vegetables to whatever you have available,' suggests Patty Kile of Greentown, Pennsylvania. 'It's convenient for company because the veggies can be precut and refrigerated in plastic bags until cooking time.'"
