With its red tomatoes and green pepper, this healthful rice dish from Nola Nielsen in Darien, Illinois is colorful enough to serve during the holidays, she says. “But I make it whenever I want a special rice dish any time of year at all!”
Ingredients:
1/2 cup uncooked minute® white rice
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
2 teaspoons butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1 plum tomato, seeded and chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese, divided
Directions:
1. Cook rice according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a small nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, saute green pepper in butter for 2 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the tomato, salt, celery salt and pepper and cook 2 minutes.
2. Add the rice and 1 tablespoon cheese; heat through. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Yield: 2 servings.
