Green Rice

Hello from North Florida on this cloudy and misty day. I hope today finds you well and with money in your pocket. Not for me, but I still want the best for all of you.

Today, I have no photo, as you just have to know that I just can not cook and eat everything that I post. But this is an older recipe of mine that I do enjoy. The reason that I call it green rice is that when you finish cooking this it will be green from the broccoli.

So, we need one big head of broccoli that is rinsed well and broken into flowerets.

Two cups of parboiled rice (This is a firmer rice when done.)

1/8 tsp salt and 3 TBSP of unsalted butter.

We all know that when you cook rice it is 2 to one, meaning 2 cups of water for every one cup of rice. Something I learned many years ago from the best cooks in my family, back then.

So in a medium pot put 2 cups of rice and 4 cups of water along with the salt and bring to a boil. Have your broccoli in there also. When it starts to boil real good, turn the heat down to number #3 or a low setting and put the lid on the pot. Cook for 20 minutes. When done add in the butter and stir it in.

I absolutely adore this green rice recipe and could just eat this all by itself. You could make changes to this recipe for yourself but I like it just the way it is!

Thank you for your visit today and I pray that this new year will be an awesome year for you. Stay awhile and browse my archives for more recipes if you wish and do come back for more recipes if you want. And as always share away with your friends.

I always make new post on Tue-Thur and Saturdays so yall come back you hear. Connie B. https://www.wisdomforpennies.com/greenrice
