My Page

So this page is more for a place to keep my recipes so I will always have them. It might change to have more than just the different recipes, but who knows. The recipes are not ones that I have made up myself. They are bits and pieces that I have picked up from places I have worked, people I have visited, and of course Mom, Sister, and Grandmas.

Spanish Rice

This one is from Peah.  It's pretty good.  I have tried it with Minute Rice and you can use other white rice as well.

What you will need:
1 Cup uncooked rice              1 Cup Chicken Broth
1 Cup enchilada sauce            2-3 Tbsp butter
1/2 tsp Chili Powder               Salt and Pepper to taste
(you can also add in some cayenne pepper for heat)

-- Over medium heat melt the butter and brown the rice for about 3-5 minutes.  Get it so that it has mostly changed color a little bit.


--Stir in the broth, sauce, and chili powder.
--You can adjust the level of heat to your rice by using a different level of enchilada sauce. Aaron likes mild. We do hot.  If you are making a bigger batch... you can mix some hot and some medium or whatever.  You can also add a little cayenne pepper for some added heat too.
--Add your salt and pepper.

--Cover and let simmer for about 30 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally
--When the rice is done and it has thickened up the rice is ready

--If you want you can throw the rice in a baking dish with some cheese on it in a 300 degree oven for a few minutes to met the cheese on the top.


Very good.  Very easy.  Enjoy!  I usually make a double batch, but that's cause I like to eat.  Single serving should be good for 2-3 people.
