brown rice
Whole-grain side dish
Brown rice is rice that retains its bran and germ layers, giving it a tan color and chewy texture.
It's considered more nutritious than white rice, which has been milled to remove these outer layers.
Brown rice takes longer to cook and has a nuttier flavor: I'm trying to eat healthier, so I switched to brown rice.
