Needing ideas-Meals Using Rice

Tweet

Outlandish as it is, my good friend was recently given a 250-serving bag of white rice by her boyfriend, who likes “long grain” instead of this stuff and didn’t want it. My friend doesn’t cook hardly at all, but she was bugging me about different uses for white rice. So far she has made one recipe, stuffed green peppers (with rice, beans, tomatoes, cheese). She doesn’t have a lot of money, so i am encouraging her to use it up. Get creative. She also gave some to me, which I made some vegetable fried rice with. I don’t eat meat, but she does. Many cultures use rice as a staple in every meal. Americans (and pipe up if you disagree) do not use rice as frequently. So I am reaching out for ideas. Both vegetarian and meat eating. Besides fried rice and as a side, what would you use this excess of white rice for? Every time I see her she gives me a baggy of it as well. lol. Any ideas? What is your favorite rice dish?
