Easy and delicious recipe. My kids ate several helpings. You can make it with sticky, white rice as well. Very delicious; the cilantro and mango make a delightfully refreshing combination. We couldn't get enough.

This rice was good. Not great. I made it with Jasmine rice - but that was the only change. Could have used a little more lime juice to enhance the lime flavor.

I rarely if EVER rate recipes horribly low, but this recipe needs some SERIOUS flavour. It's quick enough to make but needs some spices/herbs to make it pop. It was extremely bland. I would also disagree w/ cubing the mango. I think a rough chop is fine.

Pretty good. The mango I had on hand was a bit over ripe, so the rice was a bit stringy. But I really liked the flavor of the rice. A nice change.

Very good! I'm not a big fan of brown rice, but have been trying to find ways to incorporate it into our diet. This was definitely a perfect match to the Grilled Fish Tacos. Thanks! Oh, I also through in a chicken boullion cube when cooking the rice.
