i have a quick question....on my bag of brown rice it says that one serving is 1/3 cup dry.... how much does that measure out to after its been cooked?

It's really hard to say because it depends on how much water you use, how long you cook it for etc...

I find it much easier to cook a bunch and then measure out how much you need

The kind I use says that 1/2 cup uncooked is 2/3 cups cooked. I am eating it right now. 2 servings, 1 can tuna, 1tsp chili powder, 1 tsp red pepper, 1 tsp habanero powder, 1/2 tsp garlic. good shit

What I would recommend is that you measure out 1 cup pre-cooked (which is 3 x 0.33 serves) and then measure it again once you have cooked it. That way you know that if you divide the cooked measure into 3 serves, each one will have the nutritional value of 0.33 cups raw rice.

I am going to start using more brown rice in my diet. In the past I have not had good luck in making it taste good. It seems to be undercooked as well. I use a rice cooker and maybe it just does not do a good job of cooking brown rice.

Any suggestions as to make brown rice taste better? I think I will skip the chilli/habenaro suggestion. Any others?
