Method
- Add the spinach, parsley, cilantro, green onions, garlic, vegetable broth, olive oil, lime juice, salt, black pepper, and cumin to a blender. Blend until completely smooth and bright green.
- Pour the green mixture into a medium saucepan and stir in the rinsed brown rice.
- Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- Remove the pan from the heat and let it stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and taste for seasoning. Serve warm as a side dish or base for bowls.
Notes
For extra brightness, add a little more lime juice before serving. You can also swap parsley or cilantro with other fresh herbs you enjoy.
