2/3
cup sugar
1/8
teaspoon salt
Preparation:
1.
Combine rice and orange peel in 3-quart saucepan; cook rice according to package directions.
2.
Meanwhile, combine cranberries and orange juice in saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer 7 minutes or until juice is absorbed. Set aside.

Tip
A Chinese restaurant with take-out is never far away. If you don't have time to make long-cooking rice, or don't have parboiled rice in your cabinet, pick up cooked rice for take-out. For an even faster alternative, plump cranberries in orange juice, then add to 2 pounds of prepared rice pudding.
