My Favorite Recipes

So, I thought I'd take today's post to launch a new page on my blog. It's going to be "My Favorite Recipes." I don't know about you, but I cook a lot and, I acutally enjoy it - most of the time. And, if you're also like me, you get bored with the same recipes, over and over again, and are constantly looking for new ones. Here you go!

The first recipe is Son's favorite. According to him, this is the abssolute best thing I make and he would eat it everyday, if he could. The crazy thing is that while he says it's the best thing I make, I say it's the easiest thing I make, which is a plus.

Anyway, it's a recipe that my mom passed down to me, and I have no idea where she got it. Knowing her and what a great cook she is, she probably made it up. I don't know what the dish's real name is or if it even has a name, so I just named it after Son. Check it out, your family will probably love it!



Riley's Casserole

Ingredients:
1 cup of rice, uncooked (brown or white is fine)
2 cups of water,
1 lb. ground beef
1 can, cream of mushroom soup
1 packet, dry onion soup mix

Directions:
1. Spread uncooked rice over bottom of 9x13 cooking dish (I usually spray mine with cooking spray first. Things stick, you know.)
2. Pour the water over the rice.
3. Put beef top of rice and water, crumble in small smounts all over dish.
4. Put soup on top of beef, in small spoonfuls all over dish.
5. Sprinkle dry onion soup over top.
6. Cook at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes until bubbly.


Let me know what you think! Son recommends it with all enthusiasm! Have a great weekend. Check back on Monday for more of my take!

    1. Raw. You can also usse chicken breasts or pork chops, they're all good. Riley's favorite is the beef, though, so that's usually what I do.
