A few months back, I decided to no longer use packaged foods. This was tough because I loved Rice-A-Roni and other boxed rices. My first recipe search was for a good rice pilaf. To the recipe above, I would use chicken broth instead of beef and I would add minced garlic. I also use a mixture of Orzo and rice, but you can also use broken spaghetti pieces along with rice. Honestly, it does not take any longer or any more effort to make your own "homemade" pilaf! It tastes better too!
