Cook the Rice: In a pot, combine brown rice and broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 40-45 minutes, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Mix It All: In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked rice, sautéed vegetables, and mixed vegetables. Season with salt to taste.

Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot.
