I was happily bouncing through my day when I realized tonights meeting is a potluck. AH! I was not prepared for this. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy eating the food but sometimes it is more of a 'pain luck' than anything. Not having time to go to the store I came home and scrounged around to see what I had in the pantry.
I came up with my Great Aunt Net's,(Jeanette was her really name), Mexican Fried Rice. I am hoping it a crowd pleaser.
*Put about 1/2 cup of canola oil in a skillet
*Chop and put in half of an onion and 3 cloves of garlic
*Add 2 cups of brown rice
*Cook until the rice is a nice brown color
*Add 5 cups of chicken broth
*Season with cumin, chili powder, garlic salt and add a few tablespoons of salsa
*Cook on medium until all of the liquid is gone
*You can serve it with salsa on top too if you would like
So here's to my Great Aunt Net, who I know is watching over us from heaven. I hope you see Fried Rice get me out of a potluck bind tonight.
