Steamed Shrimp and Broccoli with Rice Cooker and Steamer GIVEAWAY!



Steamed Shrimp and Broccoli over Rice
with a GIVEAWAY!

I have been craving Shrimp all week. I made it last weekend and have been craving it ever since. I wanted something healthier because I have been battling this flu bug all week and I am ready to get over it! So I was looking for something healthy with Shrimp. 

My dear sister Jillee gave me an Amazon gift card for Christmas and one of the things that I ordered was an Aroma Rice Cooker. When it came in the mail I realized that it was also a Food Steamer! It has been sitting in the box since I got it and I thought this would be a perfect time to try it. 

I love this thing!

I cooked two cups of rice, steamed Shrimp and Broccoli and it was awesome. The taste and texture were so much better and it just melts in your mouth. Food tastes amazing steamed. What a difference and it can't get much easier than throwing everything in and pushing a button. 

 Ingredients

 Shrimp (You can use frozen, fresh, uncooked or cooked)
I put the shrimp in some olive oil with seasonings and garlic
Frozen or fresh broccoli
Rice

 Directions

 All you do with this fabulous product is wash the rice, add water, add shrimp and veggies and press a button. Done. It will stay warm until you are ready with the warm feature.


Aroma Rice Cooker & Food Steamer

I love this thing so much that I am going to give one away to you! 
Yippee! I bought the 6 cup steamer, but for my family this is a wee bit small. For two people it is perfect. I am going to let you decide which one fits you better. You can either get the 6 cup or the 14 cup. The added benefit of this product is that you are not just limited to rice, meat and vegetables. They have a website with all kinds of meals that you can make in this like soups, oatmeal, Green Chile Chicken and Rice and so much more. 






  • Perfectly prepares 2 to 6 cups of cooked rice and automatically keeps it warm for hours
  • Steams vegetables and meat - even while simultaneously cooking rice
  • Simple, one-touch operation switches to keep-warm mode automatically when finished
  • Nonstick inner cooking pot and all accessories are dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup
  • Full-view tempered glass lid
  • Accessories include serving spatula, measuring cup and steam tray

  2. Good Morning, Dori! I am a follower of this blog all OVER the place. I follow on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest AND Google. I shared your post on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

    That makes 7 entries, yes? I have always wanted to get a rice cooker/steamer but it's just not something I will probably ever actually spend money on. LOL. I'm kind cheap like that. LOL.

    For entry #8.......as for an upcoming post on Riches to Rags, I love to see some photos of your winter wonderland. I don't miss the cold at all but snow is pretty to look at. :)

    Have a fantastic day.

  5. Hi Dori! I am now following you on pinterest and I liked and shared your facebook page. I am a stay at home mom of three beautiful children. This rice cooker/slash steamer seems like heaven. I would be able to feed my family good healthy food fast! Having 3 kids, we are always on the go so this would make mealtimes easier. Love the idea of one pot too.

  12. Dori, I would love some delicious low calorie recipes. As you know, I have a broken ankle from a fall on the ice, and will be laid up for 12 weeks, so I really need to eat low calorie meals so I don't put on any extra weight, now that I can't exercise for awhile. I LOVE you blog!! You have done so well, I am amazed when I see all that you accomplish. I am VERY proud of you. Mom

  36. Hi Dori!

    Because my Fiancee and I are the only ones that I cook for, I'd love to see more two or three part meals. Its really hard to portion some things out, especially when we're talking about cooking a whole roast or bird. I'm interested in the day two side of things where my leftovers can be transformed into something else.

    You're the best!

    Liz
