3 c. uncooked rice
1/4 c. dried parsley flakes
6 tbsp. instant chicken or beef bouillon
2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. dried thyme

Mix and store in airtight container. To use put 1 cup mix, 2 tablespoons butter and 2 cups water in saucepan. Bring to boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes or until rice is tender.

To more closely resemble rice a roni, substitute 1 cup broken pieces spaghetti for 1 cup of rice.
