SUPER-QUICK BROWN RICE WITH ASPARAGUS, CHICKPEAS, AND ALMONDS
Discovered on Heidi Swanson's "101 Cookbooks" website, I adapted to add a little more flavor punch. This has been a crowd-pleaser many times over, even with people who "don't like asparagus!" It's tasty served at any temperature, making it a great addition to a potluck meal.

Steps:
- Pop Trader Joe's frozen brown rice in the microwave, or make a batch of rice the traditional way.
- While rice is cooking, make the dressing by whisking together half of the chopped garlic, tahini, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 3 tbs. olive oil.
- Add the hot water to thin a bit, and then 2 teaspoons salt. Set aside.
- Add 3 tbs. olive oil to a big skillet over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the pan.
- Be sure the chickpeas are completely dry, or they'll spit at you during this next step!
- Add the chickpeas and a sprinkling of salt. Let the beans saute for a couple minutes, until they get a toasty little crust on them.
- Add remaining garlic and onions. Stir for a minute.
- Stir in the asparagus with another pinch or two of salt, then cover with a lid for a minute to steam until the asparagus softens a touch.
- Uncover and stir in the rice and almond slivers, reserving a few almonds for garnish.
- Adjust seasonings, adding more salt if needed.
- Serve family-style in a big bowl drizzled with a few tablespoons of the tahini dressing, letting each person add more dressing to their tastes.
- Watch as this magical concoction disappears before your eyes!

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan, add the onion, and cook until the onion softens, about 4 minutes. Add the rice and toast the grains, stirring occasionally, until the rice begins to look opaque (bright white), about 4 minutes. Add the water, butter, lemon slice, and lemon zest, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, slice off the tough ends of the asparagus stalks and discard them. Cut the spears on a diagonal into 1-inch lengths. Fill a large non-reactive pot with a steamer rack with 1/2 inch water, place the pot over medium heat, and bring the water to a simmer. Add the asparagus, cover, and cook until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Transfer the cooked rice to a serving bowl and toss in the asparagus. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:
- Combine rice and stock and bring to boil in heavy-bottom pot.
- Chop whole onion and heat oil in small nonstick pot. When oil is hot, add the onion, reduce heat to medium high and saute onion until it softens and begins to brown.
- When rice begins to boil, reduce heat to simmer and cover, cooking a total of 17 minutes.
- Wash and break tough stems from asparagus at the point where the woody part meets the tender part. Cut the asparagus just below the head and then cut remaining stems into one-inch pieces.
- When the onion is soft, stir it into the rice. Place a steamer in the pot in which the onion was cooked and place asparagus in the steamer; cook about 3 minutes, until asparagus is crisp but tender.
- Wash, dry and mince enough mint to make 2 tablespoons.
- When rice is cooked, stir in drained asparagus and add mint and the salt.
