Healthy and delicious recipe! Any dinner that I can make in a slow cooker is a winner for me! It makes life easy and helps get rid of that "I guess we'll go out for dinner, we have nothing to eat" excuse!
I found it needed more spice for my families tastes. However, I enjoyed the use of the rice medley I used--made it more "nutty" flavor.
Tried this using just brown rice and it came out very bland. Also, when mixing the ingredients, some of the rice sits on the cubed squash never reaching the liquid. This left a lot of hard pieces of rice throughout the dish. It looks so pretty. Was hoping it would have come out better.
