1 cup (dry) Black rice
1/4 cup chopped Sweet onion (diced)
1/4 cup Sliced almonds (slivered; optional)

Notes:

"Black rice is one of the handful of superfoods. This rice is so flavorful and has a very unique presentation as it cooks up to a deep purple color. This rice goes great with just about any meal as a nice healthy side. I love to make it with salmon and a side of fresh veggies."
