Live well - recipe tasty and inexpensive



So there was this delicious dish my sisters and I used to make all the time but I've since lost the recipe! Not to fret because I've come up with a recipe close to it!






You'll need:

Rice (the 20 minute stuff, not that instant crap!) (MEDIUM Pot)
Ground meat: your choice. I like chicken for this (LARGE SKILLET)
Garlic Segment (KNIFE)
Can of diced tomatoes - the already Italian spiced ones are REALLY good in this recipe (CAN OPENER)
1 cup Mozza cheese shredded (CHEESE GRATER)

For strong garlic flavour add it later in the recipe
For mild garlic flavour add at the beginning

1.) Start the rice


2.) Brown the meat on medium heat. (turn heat down to low once browned.)


3.) Check the rice


4.) Grate the cheese


5.) Slice/dice the garlic - add to meat pan


6.) Rice should be almost done!


Perfect!!!


7.) Open the tomatoes dump them into rice pot


8.) let sit for 3-5 minutes.



9.) Add rice/tomatoes to pan with meat


10.) Top with Mozza; Turn heat up to 6-7; Bring to a simmer



11.) When the cheese has melted add salt and pepper/oregano if you so choose and serve!





It's inexpensive. Relatively healthy. And packs a flavourful punch! :)







Yummers!
