#Chewathon Day 4 + Brown Rice Recipe

{click image above to learn how to make perfect brown rice!}

So you’ve been chewing the bejeezus out of each and every bite this week- keep it up!! Are you finding it difficult? Easy? Easier than you thought it might be? What’s been the hardest thing to chew? Hubs made strawberry sorbet last night (brrrr, but so delicious!) and that, my friends, was SUPER hard to chew. Cold. Melty. Insanely sweet and fragrant… it had basically melted away before 20 chews, and if I hadn’t already been thinking about chewing I likely would have hoovered this stuff in record time.

So. Sorbet = Hard to chew.

Brown rice, on the other hand? This stuff was created for chewing and gets more tasty and sweet the more you chew it. Although it takes a little time to soak/cook, if you make a big batch you’ll be set for easy and fast rice porridge, rice pudding, fried rice, and any other number of quick dishes over the next couple of days. Woohoo to more time for chewing!

Chewing tip of the day: Try eating your meal with chopsticks. Because you can’t scoop up a ginormous spoon/forkful, using chopsticks basically forces you to take more time eating, thus encouraging more chews!!
