So what is your go-to product for a tasty side or meal starter? At my house that prize goes to rice! Rice is so very versatile and can be used in a million different ways. Often I will just steam the rice and toss it with some peas and carrots. Other times it’s the base for my meatballs and gravy. Then other times it’s the star ingredient like in my chicken and rice casserole or rice salad! I probably have a hundred or more ways that I can serve it up!
I consider it a pantry staple and use it so often, it has a place on my counter right beside the sugar and flour.
Luckily you Florida folks have a fantastic option when it comes to choosing a tasty rice to serve at your dinner table! Look for the bags of Florida’s Table™ rice on the Florida Local end cap at Publix with all the other local goodies.
I have been using the rice in my own kitchen for a over a month now and am a HUGE fan. Whether it’s as a side dish or the main ingredient in my recipe, it comes out perfectly cooked and delicious every single time.
I actually found a super deal on a rice cooker a couple of weeks ago and have put that baby to work. I know…it takes me a while to get with the times. I have been steaming rice on the stove for a zillion years…it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks. BUT–I am now a convert and am completely addicted to that little marvel–tee hee!
