Small bowl of rice approx 2/3 cup cooked. I used to be able to eat more when I was younger.

Yeah,that's what I meant, the little pasta grains that look like rice.

We never had rice growing up, so I hardly ever make it. I eat low carb now, so I never eat it, but DH likes it more, so I make it for him, and he has about a cupful.

I am Spanish so rice is a daily staple here.


I make for the four of us, 1 1/2 cup of dried rice to 3 cups of water. I first saute the rice a bit in butter to get it hot and toasty before adding the water. This is perfect for us with no leftovers as I make it daily.


We too love rice and have several varieties at hand. Currently there's red rice, white short grain, sweet rice, jasmine and basmati in my house. Oh and a few vigo packs of yellow rice and red beans/rice.

Also have nuked broccoli florets 5 nights a week.


But a really diverse noontime menu which is the big meal of the day.


Also, totally different fixins' on Sat. and Sun. along with some spirits.

I bet I could eat a quart of shrimp fried rice. I wish there was a rice eating contest

I also prefer dry foods to wet. So I can eat rice and a potato frittata and enjoy it.

There is a rice eating contest. I saw one guy eat 19POUNDS of it. I have no idea how he did it either. He is a little skinny guy too! Here you go...

Great choice. Brown rice is good for you.

I eat about 1 full cup of cooked rice, sometimes two cups, depending on the main course

if Im having a roast beef dinner, then one cup is enough

if Im have mostly vegetables and stir fry with little pieces of meat, two cups

I love rice and eat lots of it. 1 cup is my usual serving. I eat more if I'm very hungry.
