Take-Along Veggie-Rice Pilaf

In a medium saucepan, cook mushrooms, onion, and garlic in hot butter or margarine until tender.

Carefully add water, bouillon granules, and pepper; bring to boiling. Stir in zucchini, carrot, and rices. Return mixture to boiling; reduce heat.

Simmer, covered, about 40 minutes or until the rices are tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir in nuts. Makes 6 side-dish servings.
