Here is my new blog, not much going on lately except more laundry and cooking and cleaning but can't complain. Today I have decided to share my recipes with all of you. I'm not an expert, never been in cooking school, and I'm not a nutritionist; but I'm a mom concerned about my family having healthy meals, love cooking and most of all with these difficult times it doesn't hurt to save a little or a lot!
Here is my 1st recipe, I promise to bring you at least one recipe a day God permits...and if my children and husband are not causing chaos in my kitchen :). And BTW, like many of you I don't measure ingredients that is such a waste of time especially with my busy schedule. Trust your instincts and have fun in your kitchen!
Got left over steam rice??? here is something simple and economically wonderful to cook as a side dish:
Oregano/Corn/Cilantro Rice
2-4 cups of cooked steam rice ( white or brown) *I personally love basmati rice, smells so delicious
1 tbs ( tablespoon) of dried oregano, crushed
2-3 tbs butter ( love country crock myself)
1 cup of kernel corn, drained
cilantro
1 tbs ( tablespoon) of dried oregano, crushed
2-3 tbs butter ( love country crock myself)
1 cup of kernel corn, drained
cilantro
Steps:
Melt butter in a saucepan. Add oregano y simmer for about 5 minutes. Add corn and simmer for another 3 minutes then add rice. Toss gently so the rice will remain whole and leave on heat for about 5-6 minutes. Once is hot, add the cilantro, you can chop it but not finely or just add it as is. Stir a little and turn it off!!! Easy, quick and cheap. And best of all, it will help you get rid of any left-over rice, this is why I love this recipe. My husband prefers it as a side of tilapia or grilled chicken.
Enjoy...
Your feedback is appreciated and I'm always open to suggestions to improve my recipes
