Ingredients:

5 cups button mushrooms, sliced thin
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup sweet brown rice, uncooked
5 and a half cups chicken or vegetable broth
Sea salt to taste
2 Tbs. olive oil

2. In a medium or large pot, saute the onion in the olive oil. When onion is soft, add the mushrooms and a pinch of sea salt.

3. When the mushrooms are soft, add the cooked rice and sea salt to taste. Add the rest of the broth (3 cups) and mix until everything is well-incorporated.
