Five Spice Rice Recipes

MINUTE RICE FIVE SPICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Brown meat in oil, add onions and cook until tender.
• Stir in seasonings, soup, tomatoes, and Minute rice.
• Simmer 5 minutes.
• Stir occasionally.
• Spoon into 1 1/2 quart baking dish. (But I only use a cast iron skillet, since it is both oven and stove top friendly. Plus, my Grandmother always made it in a cast iron skillet, and I did learn from her. She was the best cook for comfort foods.).
• Criss cross with cheese and broil until cheese melts.
• Garnish with olives if desired.
• Instead of olives, we sometimes use jalepenos.
• Also, this recipe works well when you cook it in a cast iron skillet- you only dirty one dish that way!
