Spicy Confetti Rice

I enjoy this recipe from http://www.drmcdougall.com/. (This is pretty spicy--you can use less)

1/4 cup vegetable broth
1 chopped onion
1 chopped celery stalk
1 chopped red bell pepper
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 tsp fresh minced garlic
one 14.5 oz can stewed tomatoes--Mexican, Cajun or Italian style (I used Mexican)
one 4 oz can chopped green chilies
1/2 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup frozen peas
2 tab. soy sauce
1 tsp chili powder
dash or two of Tabasco sauce
4 cups cooked brown rice
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley


Place the veg. broth in a large pot or skillet. Add onion, celery, bell pepper, mushrooms, green onions, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 min. Add remaining ingred, except rice and cilantro or parsley. Cook, stirring occasionally for an additional 5 min. Add rice and Stir in cilantro or parsley. Serve hot.
