Title: Rice With Pasta Sauce
Ingredients:
– 1 cup white rice
– 2 cups water
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 small onion, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
– 1 teaspoon dried basil
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)
Instructions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the white rice and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the water.
2. While the rice is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3. Stir in the diced tomatoes, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors are well combined and the sauce has slightly thickened.
4. Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and transfer it to the skillet with the pasta sauce. Gently fold the rice into the sauce until well combined.
5. Serve the Rice with Pasta Sauce hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy this comforting and flavorful meal that is simple to make yet tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen!
