Health Benefits
Rice with goodies is a hard dish to ascertain health benefits for, mostly because it’s never made the same way twice. The entire premise of the dish is that it makes use of whatever you have laying around in your fridge or cupboard. But one of the more interesting ingredients in this recipe is turkey.
