As a Mom of two, I am always looking for fast, easy and affordable meals for my family.  Now thanks to Minute Rice Ready to Serve Rice products, there is one less item to think about when cooking.  Each package includes two 4.4 oz cups that are ready to serve in 60 seconds, and they come in the following varieties:

  • Whole Grain Brown Rice
  • Brown and Wild Rice
  • Multi-Grain MedleyWhite Rice
  • Jasmine Rice
  • Chicken Rice Mix
  • Italian Rice Mix
  • Spanish Rice Mix
  • Yellow Rice Mix
  • Pilaf Rice Mix

Each of these would taste great alone, either for breakfast, lunch or dinner, but when you consider the stir-in ideas from the  Minute Rice site, your meal time possibilities are endless!

I received a coupon for a free package of Minute Ready to Serve Rice and was instructed to make my own rice meal rice.  For my recipe project, I made my go-to dish – Baked chicken served over brown & wild rice.  This meal is a superfast dinner solution for your busy weeknights.
