Rice is a pretty common side dish on our dinner table. The kids love it and will actually eat it without complaint(unlike everything else on their plate...) and when I'm disorganized and haven't been to the grocery store(which is all the time) a little rice on the side makes the meal seem a little bigger. My husband is pretty good about taking leftovers for his lunch, but the container of rice often sits untouched in the fridge long after the rest of the leftovers have been eaten. What to do with the leftover rice???
Here's what I do:
Pour it into a casserole dish (size depends on how much rice you have left!)
Mix in one can of cream of mushroom soup plus once can water or milk (the milk will make it extra creamy)
Add frozen vegetables (as much or as little as your children will tolerate.)
Pop it in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes and ta-da a brand new dinner ready to serve.
What do you do with your leftover rice??

Leftover rice makes for a yummy(and quick) breakfast too. I just heat it up with butter, milk, cinnamon and a little sugar or honey... yum.
You should ask Wink for his Fried Rice recipe...he was telling me about it last week and I've been craving it ever since!
I'm making this for dinner tonight and I'm super excited!!!
