Homemade Rice-A-Roni
1 c. basmati rice
small amount thin spaghetti noodles broken into small pieces 1 tbsp. beef bullion powder concentrate 1/4 tsp. parsley flakes 1 sm. can mushrooms drained 1/4 tsp. dried onion Brown rice & vermicelli (spaghetti pieces) in butter or oil until lightly browned, then pour in 2 1/2 cups of boiling water and then stir in all other ing. place lid on top and place on medium low heat for 25 min's or until all water is absorbed. Stir, serve and enjoy. Use your imagination and different types bouillion (chicken, tomato/chipolte, etc.) and use different add-ins (drained water chestnuts, diced celery, carotts, etc.) and come up with your own new Rice-A-Roni flavors! Last night I made a Spanish Rice using the Tomato & Chipolte flavored bouillion (Knorr) with chopped onion, celery, and garlic added it was delicious!

Thank you Cathy. You have just showed me another low sodium recipe without even knowing it. Sodium free bouillon (5 mg per cup actually) is available and the other ingredients are very acceptable. Now I know I will work in some diced up grilled chicken in here and end up with a main dish.
 Cathy what would a chopped fresh onion equivilent be to 1/4 tsp dried onion? Last edited by jpshaw; 11-01-2009 at 07:23 AM.

Cathy, Isn't it shocking how they can get away with selling a little box of Rice A Roni for? Homemade is so much better too. I love rice and there is no way one of those little boxes of "Roni" will feed a family of 5....
