  • “This is not a pretty recipe even with rainbow Chard but it is a very delicious recipe.I made these for a fussy almost vegetarian and she loved them. The one change I made was to substitute the brown rice with mixed white & wild (I thoughthad brown rice in the cupboard but none was to be found). I put apprx 5 tbsp of filling in each and cut the recipe back to 6 large rolls. Derf this is a recipe that will be made again & again- Thanks for a delicious dinner”

  • “I thought we would like these. The idea is a good one, but the combo of flavors inside, my family just didn’t care for it. Maybe someone else might though.”
