I love to open the fridge and see what I can put together without having to go to the store. When I saw the contest for rice, I thought of what I had on hand already. Easy, I had just made sweet potatoes, had brown rice left over from the weekend and tons of spices in the cupboard. I love Asian flavors and decided to take it that direction. These can be made with any kind of rice or quinoa, smaller to add to a soup or larger as a main part of a meal. I added fresh chives to add color but really any herb would be nice herej. Also, I like my rice with a bit of a crunch, so I undercook the rice a bit and mixed with the sweet potato, it adds a nice texture juxtaposition.
