I thought it turned out fantastic and added liquid because the burrito seasoning thickened the juice, so adjust liquid accordingly. I, also, used more corn plus liquid, orange and gr. pepper and that required more liquid to just cover these veggies. Use 2 1/4 to 2 1/3 liquid except for brown rice. It was not watery when finished. For BROWN RICE *** GO BY WATER NEEDED ON THE BOX.*

I edited this about the liquid and also brown rice.
