    1 1/2  C             Water
    1      C             Basmati Rice
    1      C             Frozen Peas -- thawed
    1      Bunch         Watercress
    1      C             Cremini Or Button Mushrooms -- sliced

    1                    Unpeeled Carrot -- slice in thin rounds
    6      Tbsp          Herbal Vinaigrette
 
      Bring the water to a rolling boil.  Wash and drain the rice; stir into
 the boiling water.  Reduce heat to low and cook 15 minutes.  While rice is
 hot, add peas, watercress, mushrooms, green onions and carrot and too for a
 couple of minutes.  The heat of the rice will wilt the vegetables.  Add the
 viniagrette and toss again.  Serve warm or at room temperatures.
