The recipes sound wonderful! I was very fortunate to be able to try out
Minute Ready-to-Serve Rice, a great
time saver for a busy working mother like me. There were so many great flavors
to choose… I went with the delicious sounding Minute Ready-to-Serve Rice Italian
Rice.
My life is very hectic, I am on the go all the time from morning to
night. I am up in the very early morning hours and then I am off to work, and as
soon as work ends it is time for my full time job as a mom. By the time I am
home and I pick my daughter up I have just about an hour to help her with her
homework and get dinner on the table. Yes it can get a bit crazy at times.
Luckily I had an easy meal idea for tonight’s dinner. It was a super easy recipe
with 3 ingredients! Yes only 3! It is super easy and very good. (I did not have
any fresh veggies in the house, I know, I know bad mommy… next time I make this
I will add some steamed broccoli to the ingredients).
All you need is:
Chicken Sausage (5 links)
2 packs of Minute Ready-to-Serve Rice Italian
Rice
Cook the chicken sausage in a pan, I cube the sausage, my family likes it
smaller and it is easier to eat. Cook
the Minute Ready-to-Serve Rice Italian Rice following the easy directions. Get
out a casserole dish, add the rice, cooked chicken sausage and top with cheese.
Bake for 5-10 minutes at 350 degrees just wait for the cheese to melt.
This is easy and makes a very quick and tasty meal. This meal took 15
minutes from package to table. My family loved the Italian rice flavoring, with
the mixture of the chicken and cheese it was a delicious combination. Rice for us is a staple in our meals, a great
addition that can go with just about anything. From a spicy fried chicken rice,
to a sweet rice pudding.
There
is just so much you can do with rice. And being a very busy person Minute Rice
is the only way to go for us. This rice gives you precious time that you need to
do other things. There is no reason to slave over a hot stove making rice, not
when Minute Rice has rice ready in literally minutes ( they do not call it
Minute Rice for nothing…). You will love the taste and the ease of these great
