Meet the Cook: My policy in the kitchen is to try to fix something totally new at least once a week. This recipe came out beautifully on the first try! Ever since, in between experiments, I've made it often. I usually fix Meaty Spanish Rice for family meals - but it's also great for doubling if unexpected company comes and the cupboards are all nearly bare! My husband and I own a small engine repair service. Someday soon, we plan to retire to the farm 70 miles west of here that we also operate. We have three grown children and five grandchildren - and I spend as much time with those little ones as I can! -Margaret Shauers, Great Bend, Kansas Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |

2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce |
