in lieu of a menu...

Sydney and I are getting over a stomach bug so I can't really think about food too much. We're kind of living off Gatorade and crackers at the moment :) BUT, here is a recipe that I cannot wait to try so I thought I'd share it you!!

Coconut Rice with Mangoes and Pistachios

Ingredients

• 1 1/3 cups chicken broth
• 1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups jasmine or basmati rice
• 1 cup diced mango
• 1/2 cup chopped roasted, salted pistachios

Preparation

• Bring first 3 ingredients to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir in rice. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove from heat; let stand 5 minutes. Toss gently with remaining ingredients.
