Made this earlier this week. I made some changes--replace one can of the chicken broth with a can of light coconut milk. Increased cumin. Wasn't sure what converted rice was so I just used brown rice. Added some honey to appeal to the kiddos. Didn't add the fresh snow pea strips, but I served it over a snap pea stir fry. It was very yummy.
