About

Easy adaptation of one of my dad favorite rice with a twist: rice with dried cranberries and parsley.  Cooking along, time for seasoning was here.  The rice tasted sweet so why not add the new Slavosalt to it and see what happens.  I must say, loved the flavor. Not too powerful on the garlic yet giving the rice the sweet-sour flavor that needed. Great combination and well accepted by my little man. 
Decided to season my pork chop as well with it and loved the flavor.  Steamed broccolis where requested and salad for the adults.
