truRoots Organic Sprouted Rice and Quinoa Blend Bag, 3 lbs

I use this product when making soups. I start my soups with sauteing onions. I add my spices (curry, smoked paprika, garlic, salt) and cook in olive oil and a little chicken broth. Once that is mixed up, I add 4 handfuls of this product and cook it with the onions. Add chicken broth to keep it as a thick gravy. After about 10 minutes, the onions are cooked and the rice/quinoa blend starts making it thick (the Quinoa breaks down and acts like corn starch). The rice starts to get caramelized with the onions. Then I add my coconut milk, more chicken broth and the vegies and chicken (and more spices). This product really added to the taste of the soup!

The Quality, Quantity/Size, and Value/Price exceeded my expectations.This mixture is the perfect blend- but in order to "stretch-my-dollars" tomake it last a little longer, I will measure out the Amount of thisproduct (DRY) and also measure out the Equal Amount of Dry Brown Rice,combine together and cook. This product is a pleasant tasting addition(or alternative) to any white rice, brown rice, or quinoa dish.

We like this sprouted combination. Our Nutritionist tells us sprouted stuff is exceptionally good.

I absolutely love this blend and make a big batch each weekend to include in my workday lunchbox. It's great hot or cold, and I sometimes mix with olive oil, craisins, nuts, pineapple chunks or mandarin orange slices, or add curry powder, ginger and lemon juice. I've also gone with capers, olives and herbs so it is really versatile - seriously nutritious and loaded with fiber. Add a little more quinoa if you want to up the protein factor even more.

This rice is very tasty. It has a nutty flavor and is great to make a fried rice or you could even do some kind of salad with it. The rice doesn't have the consistency of "sticky" rice. It is pretty loose even if you give it more water. Not sure if that is just a feature of sprouted rice or if that is specific to this rice. Overall, I enjoyed this rice. It is really hard to find organic, sprouted rice and this one fits the bill.

I have ordered this multiple times and have been satisfied with my previous orders. However this time, the “blend” I received was not even close to a blend. It is mostly a 2 pound bag of brown rice.....quality control did not do their job this time.

I originally purchased this product at our Costco and fell in love with it, however, they discontinued the product and I had to find it elsewhere. Neighborhood grocery stores sell the small bag, but I was happy to find the large bag on Amazon for a reasonable price and free shipping is always great!! After ordering our package arrived within a few days!! We love this rice and quinoa blend and eat it often. The stove top cooking instructions always turn out well--no sticking or lumps. We frequently add black beans or pinto beans after cooking as well as peppers and other veggies for a healthy meal.

I have used truRoots Organic Sprouted Rice and Quinoa for 4 years. I have loved the product. However, the last two bags I received from Amazon failed to have enough long grain black rice in the mix. The consistency of the advertised varieties of rice was overwhelmingly brown rice. I hope this was just a one off, but if not, the company should work on maintaining a better consistency of its advertised rices.
