Anne-Marie's Budget Saving Cheesie Rice

Submitted by dogsandwoods

"After finding my cheesy Rice-A-Roni had been in the cupboard too long, I created this as a substitute. Since my DH loved it, I wanted to keep the recipe handy. I used an inexpensive, long grain rice and bulk dried chicken broth (not boullion cubes). Please use the freshly grated parmesan, not the stuff in the plastic jar."

The taste is good but maybe it would be better with more water and less milk. For me that was a bit weird to add milk to rice. Maybe the taste would be better with an onion. Thanks dogsandwoods :) Made for Bargain Basement tag game
