Whats the best way to spice up brown rice?

I love plain brown rice, I could eat it with every meal. Unfortunitally my family doesn't feel the same way. My mom inparticular basically hates it. Her idea of chicken and rice is buying one of the pre-made box jobs(White rice + lemon flavor.. just add chicken!). Just thinking about those "meals" gross me out.

Basically, I cook chicken breasts on the george forman and make a couple cups of rice. She'll eat the chicken but won't touch the rice. Now, when I say im going to make chicken she makes it and substitutes the brown rice for some kind of buttery noodles or chicken flavored rice or any of those salty pre-packaged bags of rice/noodles.

I would like to add some healthy, non lemon flavor to the rice so I can actually eat it without complaints. Any suggestions?

I personally cannot stand brown rice.. and prefer other grains like couscous or quinoa instead....

to jazz up rice and give it more flavor, you can substitute the cooking water and use chicken broth or vegetable broth (low sodium) or hit the Knorrs soup section and use one ofthe dried soup mixes and add it to the cooking water.

Stir in some chopped spinach or chopped mushrooms or other vegetables...

I use chicken, beef or vegetable broth to cook the rice in. I'll add vegetables to the rice as well - peas, mixed vegetables, whatever I have on hand. I also like spanish rice - I'll cook some onions and peppers in Pam, boil the rice, substituting some of the water for tomato sauce, and throw the onions and peppers in with it. Always add garlic as well.

Go to the foodnetwork.com site and search Rachel Ray and rice. I saw several rice recipes yesterday that look good, and healthy and should be easy to substitute anything you're uncomfortable with. A show yesterday had a couple of recipes that I wanted to try - one of them rice - and I can't find them.
