Cheesy Rice With Hard Salami Recipe

	Pointsevenout / All my dishes 1 year, 1 month ago Meal in a pot. Main or side dish. Rice doesn't have to be that white lump of stuff that serves as a bed for something else. It can be colorful and flavorful and tasty and stand on its own with the addition of a few spices and a bit of other ingredients.... More Prep:2m Cook:25m Servings:6	Pointseveno

I like this.. unusual combination of ingredients here.. different, cranberries and cheese. seems like quite a bit of liquid.. and maybe i would substitute chicken broth for the water. usually like to make that substitution.

usually don't like to add anything to a dish that doesn't add flavor. if you put it in you should be able to taste it, my belief.

this is an idea that i favor. i eat alone at least once a week and usually make some kind of rice meal. sometimes only as simple as steamed beets over rice. love that one.

Don't fret over the amount of liquid. It will all get adsorbed. I don't like soupy rice, that is unless I'm making rice soup. The chicken broth is ok to use, but there is so much flavor in this dish, there is no way you are going to taste the broth flavor. But if it blows your dress up, then be my guest.

Put your favorite spice in the rice to turn plain bland white rice into something special. It doesn't have to be a lump of white goo.
