Wild and Brown Rice
A perfect side dish for game birds. May be prepared ahead of time and microwaved just prior to serving.
Golden Butter Rice
This golden butter rice, flavored with ginger and turmeric, is a forgotten way of cooking butter rice. It isn't cooked rice with butter stirred in, it really is rice cooked in butter. This is my favorite version, with seasonings inspired by a classic Indian drink called golden milk.
Sweet and Sour Meatballs from Heinz
This zesty meatball recipe is always a hit with any crowd. The basic, two-ingredient sauce can be switched up by simply combining Heinz chili sauce with any sweet spread such as peach jam, grape jelly, or mango chutney. And, for the ultimate shortcut, you can use prepared meatballs.
