Prepare the Rice
To prepare rice, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Place all ingredients in a baking pan.
Cover well and bake for 45 minutes.
It’s not August yet, and I’ve been tasked with presenting a dinner worthy of the beginning of the school season. How depressing is that? Not only can’t I walk into Walmart without feeling like summer is just about over, but in my own kitchen? Nevertheless, there are deadlines to meet, so here we are.
This dinner is slightly more upscale than my regular fare, but it’s still not too complicated for the average home cook. It’s a filling, nutritious dish that will hopefully excite your family as you sit
down to rehash the first day of school.
And now, I’ll go back to chilling on my back porch with an iced coffee.
