A Distinctly Different Homestead

Momma’s Quick and Healthy Rice Dinner

Momma’s Quick and Healthy Rice Dinner

Saute until softened in 1 Tbsp. Butter and 2 Tbsp. Red Palm Oil (or more):

1 chopped carrot

1 rib celery, minced

1 cup corn

¼ cup freshly minced onion

2 cloves of garlic, minced

1 small red bell pepper, chopped fine

small amount shredded cabbage

1 cup minced cooked chicken (optional)

3 cups brown rice

Add 6 cups of homemade chicken stock (or water and bouillion) and add to rice and veggies/meat.

Bring to a boil, then simmer, covered, for 50-60 minutes. 

Scramble 5 eggs and chop fine.  Add to rice along with 2 Tbsp. of freshly minced parsley. Add salt and pepper to taste.

All of these veggies and spices can be adjusted to your family’s tastes. You could add any other veggies your family enjoys, or are sitting around in your fridge. This is perfect for using up leftovers.  Since I began making this, I use more veges than written.

This makes enough for our entire family with a little leftover!

Blessings!

Momma
