Rice a Roni is a favorite at our house. Since I've started buying less boxed and processed foods, we don't eat it very often anymore. I've seen various recipes for this online, so I had to try and make my own. It turned out delicious and so very easy to make!

How easy is this????
ReplyDeleteI know right?? It's so good and so much lighter and less salty tasting than the boxed stuff! YUM!!
ReplyDeleteWow, who knew so easy!! Here's a tip: If you can't find the skinny egg noodles, try broken angel hair pasta. I make a Mexican Fideo Soup and that's what I use b/c I can't find the noodles :) Thanks for sharing at Church Supper. Love seeing new faces. Have a blessed week and please come again next Sunday!

DeleteYour homemade rice-a-roni looks delicious. We have a homemade recipe that we use and like it but I'm going to give yours a try as it's just a tad different. I love making homemade. It's so much tastier and so much better for our bodies. Thanks for sharing it. Would you be willing to share this recipe post at our Making Monday link party? We would love it and I think our readers would, too. Thanks. Have a fabulous day. http://www.abrightandbeautifullife.com/making-monday-10/
