Rice cookers make cooking rice a breeze. But here's the best part: rice cookers are not just for rice. They can do so much more!

In this blogpost, we’ll be exploring the versatility of your rice cooker. Here are five surprising dishes you can make in it:

1. Steamed Dumplings: Place dumplings in a steamer basket inside your rice cooker and let them steam to perfection. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

2. Oatmeal: Cook your morning oats in the rice cooker for a fuss-free and creamy breakfast. Add your desired toppings like fruits, nuts, or honey.

3. Chicken and Rice: Create a one-pot meal by adding chicken, rice, broth, and seasonings to your rice cooker. Let it cook until the chicken is tender and the rice is fluffy.
