RICE WITH CHEESE AND ONIONS 
1 1/2 c. converted rice
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 lg. onion, peeled & sliced
2 tbsp. butter
3 c. chicken soup stock (or canned chicken broth)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. coarsely grated Parmesan cheese
Black pepper to taste

Put the olive oil in a hot frying pan and add the rice. Cook for a few minutes over medium heat until the rice begins to lightly brown. Remove from the pan to a 2 quart saucepan.

Place the butter in a heated frying pan and saute the onions, until they begin to lightly brown. Place the onions, broth and salt in the pan with the rice and bring to a boil. After the pot boils for 3 minutes, cover the lid and turn off the heat. Do not remove the lid for 5 minutes. Stir in the cheeses and pepper. Serves 6. Serve as a side meal with just about anything. Simple, flavorful dish. This will give you something in place of potatoes.
