1 sm. can tomato sauce or 1 (16 oz.) can tomatoes
Garlic powder to your taste
2 1/2 c. water
2 cubes chicken bouillon (optional)

Add tomato sauce (or tomatoes) to rice and add water with bouillon cubes to mixture. Bring to boil; reduce heat and cook covered until water absorbed. Remove from heat and leave covered 15 to 20 minutes. Rice should be dry. Serves 4.

Add garlic powder when you add water. No salt needed if bouillon cubes used. Can reheat in microwave.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
