RICE- a great staple

Chili and Rice

Cooked rice- any kind
Chili- canned or homemade

This is a cheap staple that my family loves! We make whatever kind of rice we have on hand, then mix in some chili. Top with sour creme, fritos, peppers, cheese or anything else. Easy, and yummy!


Rice (or noodle) stroganoff

cooked white rice or any kind of cooked noodles
2 can creme of mushroom soup
1 can beef or pork (I like pork)

Heat meat w/ soup on stove until hot. Pour over rice. Top w/ sour creme or you can mix creme cheese into the meat mixture.


San Antonio Rice- great with grilled chicken or enchiladas

1 cup uncooked long-grain rice
1 jar salsa (12 oz)
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 cup canned corn
1/2 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 1/4 water

Blend all ingredients in rice cooker and cook. Stir when finished cooking, then recover and allow to stand about 10 minutes.
May be done on stove top, but you may need to add more water if rice is not fully covered, cook until tender.
