One of my 'Israeli' recipes that I've adapted for whole rice (that in my opinion needs more seasoning). Good as a whole meal or as a side dish. Freezes fairly well, too.
Mango-Banana Bread
When my Hawaiian family introduced me to fruit bread, I was hooked! My recipe for moist, sweet mango-banana bread is a little slice of island life. It's great for breakfast, snacks, or dessert.
