I missed last week…RICE. It took me a little longer to chase my all-time favorite rice casserole recipe down. Today I’m posting two themes.
The first is a casserole I grew up with…and raised my kids with…and still prepare today. I like it so well, I can eat it cold or for breakfast. It makes a bunch and goes great with cornbread and coleslaw. I do change the recipe just a little bit…I add minced garlic and reduce the rice by 1/4 cup.
My second share of the day is from the BREAD category…
Until next time…
The wise don’t expect to find life worth the living,
they make it that way.
I’ve never made red beans and rice. I think I need to try this one. Looks good…
I also have never made red beans and rice. It sounds good!
Great quote!
Your Red Beans N Rice sound like a good stick-to-your-ribs comfort food — just wonderful for the upcoming winter months.
It’s great to share.
Amish and friendship breads are so much fun too.
Both of your recipes sound really YUMMY!! Amish Starter reminded me of a recipe my mom had a long time ago. It was called Herman Yeast starter. You could keep adding to it and keep it going forever and pass along to family and friends. Take Care!!
My grams used to make red beans and rice all the time, I had almost forgotten about it. I’ve had the Amish bread recipe sitting on the counter for the last 3 weeks trying to get to it, thanks for reminding me.
This is not the typical “red bean and rice” recipe. Those are not cooked together…or baked. This is a casserole, but it is wonderful if you like beans and rice. This was one of my favorite dishes my mom made…and she was a wonderful cook. Even though this was simple and considered “poor people food” I would have rather had it than a steak any day…still would. It came from “The Poor Man’s Rice Cookbook”…still available, I believe.
I had never heard of Herman starter, but did a search of it. “Herman” sounds like a jack of all trades among bread starters. I’ve always adored a good sour dough bread in the wintertime and most years have kept a starter going.
As for the Amish bread starter, I’ve found it gets tiresome keeping up with it after a while. Friends begin to “run and hide” when they see you coming with little containers of white stuff.
It does make a yummy loaf though.
