This is a hearty meal, perfect for coming cold days. Loved when mom made this dish! Try it and let us know what you think!
Serves 4-6
Ingredients
- 3 Cups Dry Rice
- 28 oz Tomato Sauce
- 10 oz Frozen Peas
- Romano Cheese, grated
Directions
Cook 3 Cups Dry Rice according to package directions. Most rice preparation calls for one cup rice with two cups water. This recipe uses 1-1/2 cups rice with three cups water.
When rice is cooked, fold in 28 oz cooked tomato sauce to the pot of rice. Recommendation: Furmano’s crushed tomatoes make a tasty sauce. I like to use heated leftover sauce (which I keep in the freezer) when I prepare this meal, as it makes for a quick preparation.
Fold in the frozen peas to the pot.
This is a relatively dry mixture, but if it seems too dry add a little water and fold in well.
Cover, cook on low for 3 minutes, or until peas are cooked, not mushy.
Top generously with grated Romano cheese.
Enjoy!
