Hi,

The ingredients in the brown rice pasta that I saw were "organic stone ground brown rice" and "water".  Would this be an acceptable alternative to the brown rice?

Thanks,

Diane

I sure hope it's acceptable, because I've been eating it!  As long as the portion size is reasonable (I figured a cup of cooked pasta), I would think it will be fine.  I forgot to look on the bag for the portion size so I just went with the standard portion; I'd better check next time I eat some to be sure I'm not overdoing it.

This is general medical information only. For analysis, diagnosis and prescriptions, consult your doctor or other medical professional.

 We recommend while doing the USD to avoid "pasta" but yes, it can be used as a gluten free grain product as you expand your diet. The portion caveat is most important since we may easily overindulge in pasta products 

 1 cup COOKED is considered an acceptable portion.

I am glad that I read this post.  I've bought the rice pasta but I haven't used it yet.  I would undoubtedly have had twice as much!

I see that you should not eat the brown rice pasta on the USD.  I have tried making the rice several different ways, but I have such a hard time tolerating it.  By that I mean that I just do not like the taste.  Are there any acceptable substitutions for brown rice?

Probably not, but you might be able to hide it in the vegetables or stirfry.

I have tried it in vegetables and I have tried putting it in the broth.  I can usually tolerate a couple of bites, but that's it.  I have also tried several different recipes.  I guess I just keep searching.  thanks

Congratulations on your ongoing weight loss...you are obviously doing something right...have you stuck to the USD faithfully?  Have you switched to UMD?  Do you have any secrets of success that you would like to share with us?  Do you have a good support system?  How much more weight do you want/need to lose?  The rice patty does sound yummy!  Thanks  sageherb

Congratulations on the weight loss, and your rice concoction sounds delicious!  I love things with onions and garlic! 

I've moved up to organic popcorn now(made with organic soybean oil in the future), so I'm giving rice a "rest" right now.

I think it was only unacceptable on the USD diet, which only lasts a week.  I bought mine at Trader Joe's and I think it is exceptional.

I tried making it into a patty but it didn't stay together.  How did you do it.  I wonder what the disadvantage to eliminating the brown rice completely would be?

We didn't care for brown rice either but my husband sauted some diced celery and onions (or any allowed vegie of your choice) and then added some Garam Masala seasoning to the rice before cooking--with a little of the Tamari sprinkled on before eating it is not too bad!  Also, we have added a little chicken broth or UltraBroth to the cooking water of the rice.

Are you eating the regular brown rice, the basmati brown rice or the jasmine brown rice? I eat the short grain brown rice and I think it's delicious ... much more tasty than "regular" brown rice or even better than brown basmati rice.

I found a "sweet" brown rice which is quite good, and a nice change.  It was in the local supermarket.

I have tried both.  Maybe the problem is that I just don't like rice period unless it is pork fried rice!  I did find a brown rice cake that has only brown rice and salt.  I checked another message board that says it was not recommended however.  I will keep trying.

First of all I have been eating brown rice for many years and love it. I eat it with stir frys (coconut is particularly good), black beans, sauteed greens, etc. I cook it with some organic, free range chicken broth in place of some of the water for extra flavoring (or good broth powder). The only way that I wasn't particularly keen on the brown rice was for breakfast. I just couldn't get excited about it, so I had a lot of smoothies during my three week cleanse Wink

 Other grains you might want to consider are quinoa (wonderful source of protein and mentioned in the book as recommended), millet, amaranth, etc. 

 Great to chat!
