I have been looking through my handwritten recipe book. I found this recipe in there twice. From my MIL and a family friend Sue. Must have been a popular recipe back in the 60's or 70's.
I decided to change it just a bit. One ingredient to be exact. I used chicken broth in place of 1 stick melted butter.
While eating dinner, I thought small pieces of carrot would be really good in the rice. Might try that next time.
