Apple Brown Rice Dressing

YAY!!  I found a rice dish Rossy liked!!  This was super super good!!  The apples mixed in with the brown rice made this AMAZING!!  I can NOT wait for leftovers - and plus, it's healthy...it is made with brown rice :)

Makes 6-8 servings: Paula Deen magazine

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups uncooked brown rice
2 (14.5 oz) cans chicken broth
3 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt and pepper
1 red apple, cored and chopped
1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds

Prepare rice according to package directions, substituting broth for water and omitting salt and butter.

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat.  Add celery, green onions, sage, sea salt, and pepper; saute for 5 minutes.  Add apple, and saute for 2-3 minutes or just until veggies and apple are tender.  Stir in cooked rice and almonds.
