Arangini.....or Rice Balls....or Werewolf balls....I'm not sure by Michael Swiney

The German Goddess and I were discussing food one day, as happens a few times a week. On day I was making something that she couldn't pronounce and she just deadpanned "Dracula's Balls?" Ummm.....Noooo, but that's what we'll call it from now on. K?…

Orange Portabella and Spinach Rice Bowl

Orange Portabella and Spinach Rice Bowl by Sean Kervin

I have since bastardized the concept - but the foundation of some rice, in a bowl,…

Italian Rice and Beans by Rich H

This is a nice rice and beans dish that is similar to risotto. It is rich and creamy. We've made the lacto-ovo vegetarian version but it can easily be adapted to vegan with some simple substitutions.

Cheesy Spinach Rice Bake

Cheesy Spinach Rice Bake by sunlit2

From freezehappy.com I have adjusted and removed some ingredients to lighten it up. My husband and I really liked this one and my husband doesn't like spinach. Serve as a side dish to accompany healthy grilled chicken or as its own vegetarian dish. You can definitely play around with the cheeses you use...try pizza blend, Mexican…
