Instructions
- Start by making the Success Boil-in-Bag Jasmine Rice according to box instructions.
- While the rice cooks, heat a skillet to medium-high heat. Add the butter and diced white onion. Sauté for 4-6 minutes until onions begin to soften.
- Add the minced garlic and stir again. Once fragrant, fold in the diced carrots and celery. Cover with a lid for 8-10 minutes, stirring once or twice to avoid burning.
- Fold in brown sugar. Stir. Add in shredded turkey and stir again. Stir in all seasonings and remove the skillet from heat.
- Stir in ½ cup of gravy and mix until evenly distributed.
- Prepare the serving cups. I used small plates from the dollar store (they came in a pack of 12). Layer a spoonful of gravy on each small plate.
- Use a spoon or tongs to serve Thanksgiving Rice on each small plate. Garnish with fresh thyme springs and option to top with more gravy. This dish is best served warm so plate immediately before serving. Enjoy!

Notes
- It is not recommended to use Fresh Rosemary instead of Dried Rosemary.
- If you're serving this rice as a meal, serve it in a bowl. It makes 4-6 servings and is a delicious meal. Store in an air-tight container up to 5 days.
- Reheat with a little extra gravy poured over top to prevent the rice from drying out.
