Microwave rice
Is microwave rice bad for our tots? My partner and I don’t eat enough rice to actually make it from scratch and it usually goes to waste. I also don’t have much time to make it as I’m working full time and the micro rice is so easy.

Thank you @Jenny !
I can't cook rice ever, so we have microwave rice, tilda do a kids one, it does 2-3 meals with other things protien/veg etc in a packet, I just open and split it then cook out of the packet x

It’s not bad as such as nothing too sinister is added other than rapeseed oil. However cooking it in the plastic pouch isn’t ideal and it is a lot more expensive than cooking it yourself. I used to use it all the time but actually once I realised basmati rice only takes 10 mins to cook I ditched it. You don’t have to cook loads - I do a small cup and add 2 cups of boiling water and it’s enough for 2 adults, a 5 year old and our 16 month old. A big bag costs £1.79 and does us for 10+meals and is so much nicer!
