I love how packed with veggies this recipe is! It looks so good! Since I’m vegan, I’ll just sub vegan ingredients for the non-vegan ones, but I’m going to try this out asap. 😀
Megan says
How many servings will this make, and what size serving?

Hey Taralynn! I think on one of your previous posts you asked about post ideas. I’d be interested in seeing some easy/healthy to-go lunches. I’m in college so when I spend all day in classes, microwaves and bulky/giant Tupperware isn’t always an option or a convenience. My go-to lunch is a PBJ/peanut butter banana/egg salad sandwich. Any other easy ideas that are also healthy? 🙂
Denise says
Do you add the chicken broth when you combine the rice, veggies and seasoning?
Cheryl says
I have the same question.

This might be a silly question (I’m new-ish to cooking anything), when you add the chicken to the veggies and “continue to cook” do you wait until the chicken is fully cooked before adding it to the large pot with everything else?
Looks tasty! (:
Taralynn McNitt says
Yup! That is correct!
Gemma S says
May be a silly question, but does ‘prepared rice’ mean cooked rice??
Thank you!!

Samantha says
When do you add/use the chicken broth?
Melissa says
Any possibility this recipe could be done in the crockpot?

I want to try this but i am allergic to rice. Do you think i could make this with cauliflower?
Taralynn McNitt says
Yes! That would be such a fun recipe! I’d love to hear how it turned out!
