Brazilian Rice ~ with Onions and Garlic

Brazilian Rice is a more flavorful version of white rice that has just a couple additional steps. You simply sauté garlic and onion with a little olive oil in the pot first. Then add the rice and mix it with the onion and garlic to allow the rice to absorb all of that goodness. Then add water and cook completely. You will never want to eat plain white rice again! Pair it with anything you would normally use rice with.
