GREEN RICE

Melva

When Virginia gave me the recipe for meatloaf, I immediately thought of my cousin Melva's recipe for Green Rice. I've eaten a great variety of broccoli rice, but none as good as hers. I like the texture and flavor hers has. And, if you don't feel like cooking a vegetable side dish, this one has the veggie in it.

1/2 c. Onion (chopped)
1/2 c. celery (chopped)
1/2 stick oleo (margarine)
1 pkg. Chopped Frozen Broccoli
2 c. Cooked Rice
1 sm. Jar Cheese Whiz
Season to Taste (I like Tony Chachere's Seasoning)
1/2 c. Cheese (grated)

Sauté the onions and celery in the oleo. Cook the broccoli according to box directions (don't over cook).

Mix all ingredients together EXCEPT grated cheese and put in a greased 2 quart baking pan. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes
