No meat dish

I am loving sauted spinach.

I was able to find some at the grocery store and today I prepared it with the tomatoes from my garden.

These things are very, very flavorful.

My dinner: sauted spinach, tomatoes, and onions over freshly steamed white rice.

Delicioso.

Shrimp

This buttery sauteed shrimp is served over white rice with a bit of greens as embellishment .

I love rice.

Chipotle Chicken

Chipotle, a jewel of a spice for this girl who grew up on Mediterranean cooking.

The chicken is served on a bed of rice and with a side of mango.

Cooked slowly with a dash of ginger too.

Rice Cooker

Having been raised by a Portuguese mother, we ate rice often. Unlike my sisters, I never mastered the art of rice cooking. Until the RICE COOKER from Pampered Chef.

This is the finished rice. You follow the same rule of twice as much water as rice. Add spices you like. I have made my liquid soup that is like a broth.

This is the inner cover.

The outer cover is snapped on.

It can be picked up.

And it cooks in the microwave. I cook 3 cups of rice in 20 minutes. Go to the top picture to see the finished product. I now make perfectly yummy rice.
