Sweet and Savory Coconut Rice

I never will get sick of rice....when I was little, I used to just like white rice / butter / shredded cheese - and now I'm determined to find tons of different ways to eat one of my favorites starches!  This was super good - we ate this tonight with Pineapple-Ginger Flank Steak and Carmalized Green Beans.  We had Parmesan Chicken on Tuesday - and the leftover rice worked great with that meal too!
