CHILI RICE 
1 c. uncooked rice (not Minute Rice)
2 c. water
3/4 lb. grated Monterey Jack cheese
8 oz. diced green chilies
16 oz. sour cream

Bring rice and water to boil; then let boil on low heat for 20 minutes. Combine cheese, sour cream and chilies in mixing bowl. Butter the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Add rice to mix and put in casserole dish. Add a couple pats of butter on top of rice. Microwave 10-15 minutes. Serve hot.

Note: You can substitute 4 ounces of low or nonfat sour cream and low fat cheese for a healthier alternative.

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