Whenever I have a hard time planning dinner, my husband requests his favorite bake. Often, I use it as an entree, served with warm tortillas. Other times, I eliminate the meat and present it as a spicy side dish. Ingredients:
3 cups cooked brown or white rice |
1/2 pound ground turkey or beef, cooked and drained |
1-1/4 cups sour cream |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded monterey jack cheese, divided |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese, divided |
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
sliced ripe olives, chopped tomatoes and green onions, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the rice, beef, sour cream, 3/4 cup of Monterey Jack cheese, 3/4 cup of cheddar cheese, chilies, salt and pepper.
2. Spoon into a greased 1-1/2-qt. baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheeses. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until heated through. Serve with olives, tomatoes and onions if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
