Instant Pot Brown Rice Recipe

Instant Pot Brown Rice Recipe 

I always make this instant pot brown rice recipe because it’s delicious and nutritious. Anytime you need some healthy rice for a recipe this is the way to go. You can add it to burritos, stir frys, tacos, and protein Buddha bows! You can even use it to make homemade whole grain sushi rolls! 

Brown rice is great because it’s so healthy for you. It does take a little longer to cook than white rice however. That’s because it’s the same as white rice but it has the outter shells still on. These outter layers are part of the cereal grain. This aspect adds more nutritional value to the rice as well. 

That’s why I love this instant pot brown rice recipe! 1 cup of dry brown rice includes the following nutritional information:
