Yet another recipe, this one from THE JOY OF COOKING--the quintessential midwestern cookbook:
TOMATO RICE WITH CHEESE AND MUSHROOMS
2 cups peeled and chopped tomatoes (fresh or canned)
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
2 cups boiled rice (start with 1/2 cup uncooked rice)
1 cup diced american cheese (I use Kraft Sharp Cheddar slices, which used to be Kraft Old English slices, which used to be plain old Kraft American Cheese when I was a young 'un)
1 green pepper, sliced
1 cup canned mushrooms
1/2 cup commerical bread crumbs(Regular or Italian)
2 tbsps butter, cut into slices
Combine the first eight ingredients in a bowl and then place them into a baking dish. Top them with the bread crumbs and then dot the top with the sliced butter. Bake the casserole in a 350-degree oven for 40 minutes. Makes a great side dish for chicken or beef. |
