Ingredients

2 cups long grain brown rice $0.80
1/2 tsp garlic powder $0.05
1/2 tsp dried thyme $0.05
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper (optional) $0.02
3/4 tsp salt $0.03
4 cups water $0.00

Instructions

Combine the rice, garlic powder, thyme, red pepper, salt, and water in a heavy bottomed pot. Give it a brief stir to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Place a lid on the pot and bring the water up to a boil over high heat. Once it reaches a full boil, turn the heat down to low and let it simmer for 40 minutes. After 40 minutes, turn the heat off and let it rest with the lid in place for 5 minutes more.
After 5 minutes without heat, fluff the rice and serve, or refrigerate until ready to eat.
