I agree, this was really good. What I loved most about it, is how easy it is - most of it thrown together in the beginning, so don't be scared off by the list of ingredients, it only takes a few minutes to get this on the stove. I also really loved the thyme, it complimented the fruity flavours beautifully. Thanks Mike, I like this fancy rice! Made for Veg Swap 16 - Nov09

    This has both savory and fruity flavors that go together really well. I made a few changes due to what I had on hand (used converted white rice, with chicken stock instead of bouillon) and adjusted the amounts accordingly. I love this one and look forward to making it again! Thanks, Sydney Mike.

    Mmm, this was really good.I loved the flavour combinations. It was only after I'd bought the cranberries that I realised they were dusted with cinnamon which certainly added an interesting dimension to the dish! Thanks.

    I love this!!!!! I didn't have any 'dark' raisins, so I used dried blueberries. Excellent. I had it tonight with Pineapple Cranberry Pork Roast, so it was probably overkill where the fruit was concerned....however I certainly got my vitamin 'c' in today. Thanks Syd.....another wonderful recipe.
