Tomato Rice Pilaf

*I changed this up a bit, what I changed I'll put in parenthesis next to it, including cooking instructions.

Tomato Rice Pilaf
Recipe from the Taste of Home Cookbook

2 tsp butter
1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice (1 cup rice)
1 small onion, sliced (1/2 medium onion)
1 1/4 cups chicken broth (1 can broth)
2 Tbsp chopped green onion (1 chopped green onion)
2 Tbsp chopped tomato (cut up until looked good)
2 Tbsp minced fresh parsley

In a 3-cup microwave-safe dish, melt butter. Stir in the rice and onion. (I stuck the butter, rice, onion, and chicken broth in the rice cooker and cooked like normal rice.) Microwave, uncovered, on high for 2-3 minutes or until rice is lightly browned and onion is tender, stirring once. Add broth. Cover and cook on high for 13-15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. stir in the green onion, tomato and parsley. (Once rice was cooked I just added the green onion, tomato, and parsley.)
