Creamy Peas Rice Recipes

CREAMY RICE WITH PEAS AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Cook and stir onion in dressing in large saucepan on medium-high heat for 2 minutes or until tender.
• Add mushrooms; cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender.
• Add broth and peas; stir.
• Bring to boil.
• Stir in rice and cream cheese; cover.
• Remove from heat.
• Let stand 8 minutes.
• Stir in lemon peel and Parmesan cheese.
• Garnish with lemon slices and fresh dill, if desired.

SOOTHING CREAMY RICE

Steps:

• In a medium size saucepan combine rice with broth and bring the liquid to a boil over medium heat. Cover and simmer until the rice is almost tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the peas and simmer, covered 5 minutes longer. At this point you can serve half to the kids, garnished with some cheese. If you are making this for adult tastes only stir in Worcestershire, cayenne and grated cheese. Remove the pan from the heat and continue to stir until the cheese is entirely melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve immediately before the dish gets gummy.
• To reheat leftovers and change the flavor a bit, layer the rice in a baking dish and top with some tomato sauce. Cover and reheat in a microwave or regular oven until very hot.

CREAMY PEAS & RICE

Steps:

• 1. In a large skillet, melt butter and add to the pan the mushrooms, onion and garlic. Salt & pepper. Saute until lightly browned.
• 2. Add the milk, soup, peas and rice, bring to a boil, then simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. If more milk is needed add to your liking. Sometimes the rice will absorb more than expected. You want it creamy - not dry.
• 3. Place lid on pan and turn off burner. Let set for 5 minutes or until rice is tender. This is where I would add desired add ins if using. Serve immediately.

CREAMED PEAS

Steps:

• Cook peas according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until blended; gradually add milk and sugar. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Drain peas; stir into the sauce and heat through.
