Years ago, I came up with my clone of a dish my children really enjoyed. I wanted to use the freshest ingredients that I usually have on hand. Many years later, I find myself still making it. If serving a beef dish, substitute chicken bouillon with beef bouillon. Angel hair pasta can be broken into small pieces in place of vermicelli.
What can I say...This was DELICIOUS! So simple to make and waaaaay better tasting than the box stuff. Because I decided to make this on a whim I didn't have any vermicelli so I subbed orzo and that worked out fine. This is a definite keeper YUM! Thanks SHORECOOK for sharing another winner!:)

Hey SHORECOOK you'll never believe what I did to your wonderful recipe! I made it as directed using a basmati brown rice mixture. Then I added a touch of salt and pepper a can of tuna (yes I said tuna fish--from Costco) and just a very small amount of mayo. It was wonderful! So I made your side dish into a main dish that way and I've already been told to make it again that very same way. Who knew?! I loved the smell of the rice cooking because it took me way back in all those years when we first started using Rice A Roni! Thanks so much!

I love this recipe and have used it since my kids were very young and I didn't have ricearoni on hand! I think they were addicted! The only change I make is that I use chicken stock or beef stock rather than cubes too salty for our taste.

Cooked this in our dutch oven last night and it turned out better than I expected. Surprisingly Easy for a weeknight side...The only thing I might do next time is just up the spices a bit.

Excellent rice dish! Shorecook I never buy the Rice a Roni because it has soy in it. My family loves rice and this was a keeper. My son had two heaping servings and my husband remarked the rice was really good.

This an easy recipe to make. I did not have the chicken bouillon granules so I replaced with chicken bouillon powder. I also used freshly chopped parsley. It seemed to be a little bland so I sprinkled with tajin clasico seasoning.
