Homemade Rice-a-roni

1 cup rice
1/2 cup broken up angel hair pasta
2 T. margarine or butter

1 T. seasoning (McCormick Grill Seasonings work well for this!)

3 cups water
1 T. bouillon (chicken, beef, vegetable)
OR
3 cups broth

Melt Margarine in pan. Cook rice and pasta in margarine until it starts to turn a bit brown. Add in remaining ingredients and mix well. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cover. Allow to simmer for 15 minutes. Turn off heat and all to sit for an additional 5 minutes.


If you are feeling really awesome you can combine the rice and broken pasta in a canister ahead of time (Example: 6 cups rices and 3 cups pasta). Then whenever you want Rice-a-Roni, just scoop of 1 1/2 cups of that mix and add in the remaining seasonings and water.
