Heart Italian Marinara Sauce in the crock pot
 

I'm addicted to this yummy rice. It goes well with any Mexican entree. It's an easy dish to take to a pot luck party and always gets rave reviews. You will need the following ingredients:

1 1/2 cups Brown or White Minute Rice
1 can chicken broth 14 oz.
1 can green chili enchilada sauce 10 oz.
1 Tblsp dried minced onion
1 can diced green chilis
1 can original Rotelle tomatoes
shredded Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese for the top

Drain liquid off tomates. (If you prefer a less spicy version, just omit the tomatoes.)
Combine everything except the cheese in an 8 x 8 baking dish.
Mix it all up and bake uncovered for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.
Top with shredded cheese and bake 5 more minutes until cheese has melted.



You can serve this with additional toppings if you like, such as fresh chopped tomatoes, guacamole, olives, sour cream, cooked chicken, etc.
Note I usually increase the recipe by using a 28 oz. can of green chili enchilada sauce, 2 cans of broth, 4 cups rice, and 2 Tblsp onion. I leave the green chilis and tomatoes the same as the original recipe.

Looks good, but what does this have to do with Italian marinara sauce or a crock pot??

LOL My thoughts exactly.

thanks for the recipe

I'm so sorry, I have no idea what I was thinking. I didn't even notice that I had put the wrong recipe on until the next day. I have now added the correct recipe in another post if you are interested. ha, ha, what a dingbat I am.

This was a very good "mistake"! THANKS SO MUCH for such a delicious sounding recipe. Now I'm off to find the other recipe......

Glad you made this mistake. I didn't need a marinara sauce recipe, but this rice dish sounds great. Can't wait to try it. Thanks a bunch.

See, you're not a dingbat! Dusty needed this one!
