One Skillet German Rice Recipe
easy and economical!

rice and squash dinner

This German rice dish is so quick and easy to make. It is similar to a recipe for risotto - but you use regular long grain white rice.

In the photo, I've added diced red pepper along with the canned tomatoes and mushrooms. Not necessary, but nice. (Try adding some green and/or yellow pepper as well.

You can serve the rice with any vegetable - the dinner above is served with squash - just cook some frozen veggies if you're in a hurry.

This recipe easily feeds six. If you only need to feed four, then you'll have some leftovers.

Put the leftover rice in a casserole dish, add a can of condensed mushroom soup, and about 1/2 can of milk. Add some vegetables if you have any. Stir. Sprinkle cheese on top. Cover and refrigerate.

Tomorrow, bake it uncovered at 350° F for about 1/2 hour or until hot. Another easy fast dinner recipe and different than today's.
