Stick of Butter Rice … Say What!!!

Elroy licking his chops thinking about Stick of Butter Rice!

Oh you heard me …. 

I said "Stick of Butter Rice".

Yum

I don't usually share recipes here especially when they are not mine to start with,

but I'm going to break that rule today,

because

everyone needs a super fattening, super decadent and super yummy side dish.

I have made this dish 3 times,

my girl and my guy love it so much, I've had to double the recipe

so that we have enough for our meal.

They actually ask for this rice frequently, but keeping our health in mind I don't make it

frequently, 

no way,

it has to be a treat, something you think about and crave,

and when you finally get it you savor it.

Today I'm making it for a friend,

I've added 2 sautéed hot italian turkey sausage out of the casing,

I wouldn't usually but for this gift it's meant to be their dinner.

Anyway, without further ado, here is the recipe, I found it on Pinterest attached to someone else's blog, her name is Mique and here is a link.

Here you go!

Stick of Butter Rice

Ingredients

• 1 c. uncooked white rice (NOT instant) 
• 1 (10 oz) can of Condensed French Onion Soup
• 1 (10 oz) can of Beef Broth
• 1/2 c. of butter, sliced        

Directions

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 
• In a 9x9 inch baking dish combine rice, soup and broth. 
• Cut butter into slices and place on top of the mixture.
• Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
• Remove cover and bake 30 minutes more.

You can add to this recipe, ground cooked beef, mushrooms, or maybe some roasted butternut squash squares, just be creative. My mom always told me when you take a recipe from someone, change it just a bit to make it your own, I've followed her directive ever since.  

Can you even imagine how delicious that would be? So go ahead, give it a try, oh and one other trick, feel free to cut the butter amount in half, it will still be delicious. 

Say What!!!

Thanks for stopping by today!
