Soupy Rice with Zucchini
Cold Day Comfort Food
Soupy Rice is something my mother-in-law made my husband and her other kids on cold days, sick days and days when they just want something comforting. It’s super simple and super de-lish…it’s just rice, milk, butter and dash of seasoning…definitely a meal that’s ready in under a half hour. And, because I LOVE veggies, I added to her recipe :).
This is one of those comforting, mac and cheese type of recipes...except without the mac or cheese, lol.
Versatile & Adaptable
So now on cold days or sick days, this has turned out to be a staple in our home as well. And, because of my fondness of one-pot-meals….I started creating a variety of different versions of this recipe. You can easily swap the rice with quinoa. And change up the veggies...zucchini, broccoli, fennel....all of these work awesome and make this recipe adaptable to what you have in the fridge.
The most important ingredient in this recipe is the L-O-V-E!
