I threw this together in a hurry one day and loved the way it came out. It's simple, wholesome, and that little bit different. You can get dried wakame seaweed in health food or Asian specialty stores. Serve warm or cold.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste.

I used shiitake mushrooms instead of wakame and it was still delicious.

The wakame added a nice briny flavor to the rice.
