I make variations of this very frequently and love it. I usually add tahini to make it "creamier" and hold in the moisture.

Made this tonight for the first time and served it with a "cheezy" nutritional yeast sauce. So good!

Just got done eating this and it was so delish! It was a quick meal to put together since I was able to use my rice cooker and steam the asparagus at the same time. I cooked the mushrooms and nut mix in a little bit of white wine and added some thyme. I will make this again.

Wow! This was awesome! I added broccoli because it needed to be eaten. I used 2 TBSP canola oil and 1 TBSP olive oil. For the spices I used Thyme and Rosemary. Very easy to make. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This recipe is de-lish-ous! I actually made a mistake and undercooked the rice - so it was pretty dry but it STILL tasted good - image how good it would've been if I cooked the rice properly!!!  I added orange capsicum and broccoli.  My favourite thing about this meal is the addition of nuts and seeds... I love it!

:) Made this last night and it was a big hit... even with my 18 year old meat loving teenager!!  I am new to this site and so far I am really impressed with the range of recipes that are only a click away.

I made this a couple of weeks ago-- it was very tasty and hearty. Love it. I'm making it again this week!
