Recipe Sharing..It's A Family Thing Too!

I love sharing recipes and I am so fortunate my daughter, Bree, is willing to share some of her recipes with me.  Now... it wasn't too many years ago when I was the one giving away all my recipes to her!!  Since that time, she's become a wonderful cook and really gets into all the food channels watching how to prepare some pretty fancy stuff!!

Since I've started this blog, she and I have weekly conversations about recipes we'll be trying and recommendations.  Oh... you better believe, she reads this blog to make sure I'm not holding out on her!! lol  Anyway, Bree sent me some recipes and I'd like to share those with you today.  Thanks for sharing with me Bree!!

Quick Rice


Ingredients:
1 pkg sliced mushrooms
1 10.5 oz can French Onion Soup
10.5 oz beef broth (low sodium helps it not taste so salty)
Garlic powder
Butter
Uncle Ben's instant brown rice - 1 cup


Directions:
Saute mushrooms in 1 tablespoon of butter until tender.  (I cut mine up so they'd be bite size but you could cook them sliced right out of the pkg).  
Add the can of soup and beef broth to the mushrooms.
Add garlic powder to taste and add rice.  
Bring to a boil; then cover and reduce to simmer for about 10 minutes.  Depends on the rice you buy... basically just keep taking the lid off and stirring occasionally until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.
