Tonight I made Barb, Mother Superior, HOSSSPoJ's
Nicer-Roni. To say it's Nicer is an understatement.
What a treat.

I had to substitute the dried basil with marjoram, and the vermicelli
with whole wheat angel hair pasta, and the white rice with brown rice.
Believe it or not, it turned out absolutely wonderful.
Something I will definitely make again, and again.

Mom's Nicer-Roni

grains, side dish

2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried onions, ground in a mortar an; d pestle
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon celery leaves
1/4 cup vermicelli, broken into; small pieces
3/4 cup long grain white rice

Combine the first group of ingredients and set aside.

In a large skillet, melt 1-2 tablespoons of butter and add the rice
and
vermicelli. Stir over medium-high heat until vermicelli browns.
Sprinkle over the dry mixture and add 2 cups hot water (it will steam
and sputter, so be careful). Cover and cook over low heat for about
12-15 minutes until rice is tender.

Mom's Nicer-Roni Seasoning - 10 pkgs

Recipe By:
8 1/3 tablespoons beef bouillon granules
3 1/3 tablespoons dried onions, ground in a mortar and pestle
3 1/3 tablespoons dried parsley
1 2/3 tablespoons dried basil
1 2/3 tablespoons dried thyme
1 2/3 tablespoons celery leaf, ground (from George Shirley)

Combine. Use 2 tablespoons for 2 cups rice, 3 tablespoons broken
vermicelli or other small pasta, and 2-1/4 cups water.
I made kits for Chris and Jamie for Christmas 2004. They loved it.
It's good and not nearly as salty as Rice-A-Roni. I powder the dried
onions because SIL is peculiar.

Glad you liked it. Would you believe that SIL LOVED it but wouldn't
make his own because it was too much bother to break up the vermicelli?
