What's your favorite Rice-A-Roni?

[KChiefs1]

Following up the Hamburger Helper thread with another staple that everyone has eaten many times.

My favorite: Mexican Style :drool:

[Fire Me Boy!]

Spanish Rice or Rice Pilaf... probably Rice Pilaf.

I think I saw that one coming from a few miles away...

[Fire Me Boy!]

Although, I prefer Pasta Roni. The parmesean noodle stuff rocks.

" In 1958, Vince DeDomenico decided to take this recipe and produce it for sale in grocery stores. He placed the rice and pasta in a box, and added a dry seasoning mix in place of the liquid chicken broth. Because this product was made up of half rice and half pasta, he decided to call it RICE-A-RONI®."

I have never eaten rice-a-roni so I can't say, but if it's anything like hamburger helper, no thanks.

Try Zatarain's.

Great stuff!

[Fire Me Boy!]

Zatarain's spanish rice kicks ass. Their dirty rice is good, but in no way "real" dirty rice.

True, but it's pretty good without having to add gizzards and yicky stuff! :D

Broccoli Au-Gratin....

Hands, down.

Yup Chicken for me as well. Pasta Roni seems redundant.

[Goddess Tara]

I'm not sure what eating dried rice that will last a million years has to do with swallowing, but I'm a lady, I don't spit, thank you very much.

Wanna meet by the George Brett statue? Home Opener, for the Chiefs? You wear a red bikini, okay?

Actually the Okland Raiders vs. Philadelphia Eagles at the Hall of Fame game would be close to me. :p

[BucEyedPea]

Rice-A-Roni...has MSG in it.
It's mostly chemicals...even if it tastes good.

[Mr. Kotter]

Actually the Okland Raiders vs. Philadelphia Eagles at the Hall of Fame game would be close to me. :p
I can be at any of 'em; but the "George Brett statue, WITH a Red bikini" is the clincher....

I'll be the big guy, brown hair and eyes, beer-belly with goatee, and a "ChiefsPlanet T-Shirt" wearing guy....:hmmm:

Oh, wait; that doesn't narrow it down much (not if the 37Forever gatherings are any indication).....heh. :)

[Goddess Tara]

Sept. 9th? Let me check my schedule. ;)

FWIW, do a search of "ArrowheadLouder"......heh. :p

[Goddess Tara]

Oh will that be my contribution to making Arrowhead Louder?

[Mr. Kotter]

Actually, "she" was a poster.

But more to your point.....it depends: on how smokin' a bod you have? ;)

[Goddess Tara]

ROFL You'll have to ask BigChiefDave that one, I don't know.

[listopencil]

Any of the flavors where you fry the rice/pasta mix before you add the water and seasoning is good. I like to add it to garden salad.

Try Zatarain's.

Great stuff!That is the shit!

[jspchief]

Rice a Roni sucks. Lipton's rice and sauce packets are much better, easier, faster.
