LOW-FAT GREEK RICE

3/4 cup long grain brown rice
1/3 cup chopped green onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups. fat-free chicken broth
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley or 1 tbsp. dried
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh dill or 1 tbsp. dried
1 10-oz. pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed
1 1/2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. honey
lemon wedges

For moistness, wash rice. Combine with green onions and garlic in medium
saucepan. Cook over medium high heat until rice dries and becomes aromatic.
Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add parsley and dill. Cover and
adjust heat to a simmer. Cook for about 50 minutes, or until rice is tender.
Squeeze spinach gently to remove excess liquid. Stir into rice and cook for
5 minutes, or until heated through. Stir in lemon juice and honey.
Serve with lemon wedges for additional seasoning at the table.
