Thank you Mary. Recipes like these are exactly what I am looking for. You could even pre-measure the rice and pasta and spices into a small Mason jar, with the written recipe easily available, in your prepper pantry, to make weeknight meals easier.
True, I don't buy box food because I don't know what is in it. Great work with your videos. I'm into health and wellness, clean living, so your recipes are great♥️🌺
Omg you're a national ttreasure! You are helping us eat healthy and return to our natural traditions in a world full of artificial foods. Most of us wouldn't know where to begin without your help!!
We make this all the time! Instead of the thin spaghetti, we use fideo spaghetti, which I find at any grocery, particularly in the Hispanic section. I also just use a bouillon paste and garlic powder and onion powder. Put it all in the instant pot to cook on the rice setting…works great! Orzo is also a good sub for the fideo cut pasta. Always a joy to watch your videos!
Thanks for sharing 😊 If you don't mind me asking. Did it taste like the store bought version? I was also thinking the same. Using Chicken bouillon, onion and garlic powder.
@@Gracian40 to me, it does. We have not bought the packaged Rice-a-Roni in years! I saute equal parts of basmati rice and fideo pasta in butter. Add some garlic powder (I just eye ball everything, but approximately 1.5 c of rice, same with the pasta, 1/2- 1 T of garlic salt and chicken broth to cover the rice and pasta by an inch in the Instant Pot. Seal the pot and push the rice button. Fluff then serve😃
YAY! TY Ms. Mary for sharing your recipe for "rice-a-roni" I can't wait to make it! Do you happen to have other boxed meals like hamburger helper recipes in your treasure trove of cooking? Again, many thanks 😊
Dear Sweet Mary: HELLO and GREETINGS from Ontario, Canada. I GREATLY APPRECIATE ALL of your videos. You remind me of my loving mother and grandmother. PEACE, HEALTH and LOVE! God Bless you and your family. 🙏🙏🕊🕊
You read my mind, Sweet Mary! I just made up a bulk batch of "Rice-a-Roni" dry mix with a bunch of open bags of Fideo and seasonings I had in my cupboards. I just went to the grocery store (Walmart) and noticed the price jump on those prepared boxes. I know they aren't part of a traditional foods kitchen, but they are definitely convenient for an easy weeknight meal. They're just not convenient for my food budget 😲. Thank you so so much for all your videos and tutorials. PS: I would love to see a DIY "Pasta Roni" dry mix video, I've looked all over the interwebs for a recipe but haven't found one for just a dry mix.
Wow! Yes this takes me back to a child and early adulthood! Thanks so much for this! Bless You! Just love your recipes and I have made tooo many to count! Sending Much love!
Hi Mary, I haven't commented for quite a while, I watch constantly though. This video I want to comment on, this was great. I haven't had rice a Roni for a long time but I do like it very much, thanks for bringing it back to memory. As usual homemade is always better and this looks so simple, just like the boxed. I have seen the broken spaghetti in the stores and wondered what to do with it besides throwing it into soup or something. This is my next side dish, making this sometime this week. Thanks for the memories. Charlotte
Hi Mary. Thanks for the video. We love Rice a Roni and have it often. Can you do a video for Hamburger Helper potato stroganoff, which uses dehydrated potatoes? I would like to be able to make a version I could put on the shelf (not canned) to grab for a quick meal without all the ingredients of the commercial product. Again, I want to thank you for all you do to help us become better homemakers.
Thank you for this. I have tried to do more home made of boxed items. We love the Spanish rice version of Rice ironi . Do you have a recipe for that by chance. ❤️
Hi Mary, Thanks for sharing your version of homemade Rice-a-Roni. I make it too very similar to yours but add chopped cooked chicken when we want Chicken Rice a Roni, and Ground Beef when we want Beef Rice A Roni. Mixed veggies and dry mushrooms make it a special meal. Vermacelli is very inexpensive as is thin spaghetti and both work well for Rice A Roni. I will try adding the Tumeric next time I cook this dish. The boxed type is a great deal at under $1.00 for a back up meal for our pantry.
Mary, this is such a great treat. It totally reminds me of Mom. I am making it tomorrow. I just made to whole chickens and cooking Bones broth now. Perfect timing. This us totally an affordable sidedish. Or a stretcher food. I can see many additions for add ins
Oh my gosh, that looks great!! How easy-peasy can we get!!?? 😁 I might add in some leftover meat of some sort, and/or some veggies (I keep lots of frozen mixed veggies on hand.). Thanks very much, Mary!! You're the best. ☝
TY Mary, love rice a roni! Going to try this soon with the homemade bone broth I just did, and add in a can of chicken with bread and a vegetable, great budget friendly meal!! Thanks again!
Thank you Mary! I used to make this when my kids were little. Haven't made it in years because I don't do boxed foods anymore. But I'm really excited to try this homemade version! And I bet with some cheese and some kind of meat added it would be wonderful stuffed into peppers for a main dish!
Looks like a much healthier way to prepare Rice-a-Roni and I'm sure that it tastes better than the box. Although I must admit, I keep a few boxes in my pantry for a really quick side dish. I will plan to prepare the homemade pilaf though. I always enjoy and prefer cooking from scratch. Thanks, Mary.
Thank you, Mary! Would love to try this for the family. I think the children would love it. I remember on a rare occasion when I was a child having Rice A Roni. Thanks for bringing back the memories xx
Thank you for shoeing us how easy it is to make this. I truly enjoy these types of videos, where you show us how to make store bought items! I have started making some of those items on my own,and I like adding to my list of homemade recipes!
Thank you Mary...i am going to make this now for lunch...my shelves are low this month but you are correct...i do have all these ingredients....love your channel!!!!
Thanks for this recipe. Husband on no added salt diet now so I can definitely modify with lower salt. Really need newer recipes. Really enjoy your channel.
I’ve just made this. I amended it a little and blended the onion, garlic, and turmeric with about a 1/2 of broth. Learned that from a Mexican rice method that really makes those flavor pop
Thank you so much! Darn, I had just bought a box of Rice-a-Roni today when I went shopping. I'll put it in the pantry for, just in case, and give yours a try!
I love rice-a-roni! I buy Skinner brand fideo noodles at HEB. I use fideo for homemade chicken noodle soup that is similar to Lipton's boxed chicken noddle soup. I'd like to suggest using arborio rice, which is a small flat rice for a little different texture. Definitely going to try your recipe. As always, thanks for sharing, Mary.

I’m gonna show my age, but I immediately thought “the San Francisco treat!” as sung in the commercial from YEARS ago. God bless everyone!
Me too!😂
Believe it or not, I've never had Rice-a-Roni, but I remember the ads. I could sing you the jingle right now. 🎶😇 Looks delish! 🌸Michele
I only ate some once. My mother never served it!
I buy that pasta from Aldi. I use it in my chicken soup. With celery, onion and diced carrots. Yummie
In New Zealand we had Rice-a-riso. Same. Just different name. Nostalgia!
Thank you Mary. Recipes like these are exactly what I am looking for. You could even pre-measure the rice and pasta and spices into a small Mason jar, with the written recipe easily available, in your prepper pantry, to make weeknight meals easier.
As a kids growing up, I loved Rice-a-Roni and can still remember the taste. (I haven’t heard the word “schmaltz” since my grandmother was alive🌷)
True, I don't buy box food because I don't know what is in it. Great work with your videos. I'm into health and wellness, clean living, so your recipes are great♥️🌺

Oh, thank you so much for the tip on the black pepper with the turmeric. It’s always a good day when I learn something new.

I second the motion for diy Pasta-Roni. Sometimes I do not have time to make a cheesy white sauce.
Thank you Mary! Have a sweet day!
Wow! Yes this takes me back to a child and early adulthood! Thanks so much for this! Bless You! Just love your recipes and I have made tooo many to count! Sending Much love!
I haven't had Rice A Roni since college! I'd almost forgotten about it! I'm going to try this! Thank you!
I was just thinking how nice it would be to have homemade rice-a-roni! Can't wait to try this

I love Rice-a-roni. I'm betting that yours is even better. It looked delicious. Thank you for that video.
I'm so grateful that I found you! Your videos are so informative and your voice is so soothing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏
Everything Mary cook's looks delicious 😋
I’ve never had Rice-a-Roni, but delighted to give your recipe a test drive. Thanks.
Did a search for this yesterday and here you pop up with this fantastic version. Thanks so much.
Awesome recipe. You are such a wealth of information and inspiration, thank you.
Being from the U.K., I’ve never had this. It’s not available over here, but it certainly sounds and looks interesting! I may try making this.
I love rice a roni, I will be making my own, thank you
Good idea!! I like it occasionally,much more so with this recipe❣️❣️❣️❣️
My Kroger also sells thin spaghetti already broken up. Saves my fingers and my kitchen floor.
Looks delicious. Vermicelli would be great too. 😀
Dear Mary, Orzo is the perfect pasta for this dish. Small rice sized pieces of pasta. Looking forward to making this.
Hi Mary. Thanks for the video. We love Rice a Roni and have it often. Can you do a video for Hamburger Helper potato stroganoff, which uses dehydrated potatoes? I would like to be able to make a version I could put on the shelf (not canned) to grab for a quick meal without all the ingredients of the commercial product. Again, I want to thank you for all you do to help us become better homemakers.
The only Rice a Roni we actually bought was the Stroganoff one. Not healthy, but was So delicious. This chicken one sounds great! Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. Lately I have been adding Cavender's Greek seasoning to flavor my rice. It tastes great in most savory dishes.
I never knew they had spagetti in the rice a roni. Thanks for sharing.
I've made this for many years, to use up my own dehydrated veggies, concentrated broth & bulk rice. My kids & I love the versatility.
So nice to see you and can’t wait to make this!
Thank you for this. I have tried to do more home made of boxed items. We love the Spanish rice version of Rice ironi . Do you have a recipe for that by chance. ❤️
My Mom didn't buy boxed food. I buy too many. Trying to change my diet to a healthier lifestyle. Thanks for your help on this journey.
That is fantastic Mary rice- a Roni thank you so much for the recipe 😘❤️👍☺️💕🛒

Thank you for this recipe 😘
I just made this recipe, and wow!, It’s delicious and it was very easy. This is going in my recipe book. Thank you so much for such yummy recipes!
Another great video sweet lady! I’m catching up watching more of your videos. They are all so helpful. Such a great teacher!
That’s looks so easy and yummy. I’m going to have to try that. Thanks Mary, from south central Texas
Thanks for this blast from the past homemade recipe❣️😁
Thanks, Mary!
You are an awesome person with very awesome teaching skills!
Yay, great recipe!! My Aldi didn’t have that pasta but I’ll be on the lookout!!
Mary, you are so very appreciated. Thank you for being so amazing. ❤️
Love this recipe, Mary. I have learned so much from your channel. Blessing to you and your family.
I've wanted to know how to do this for awhile! Thank you Mary!
Mary, this is such a great treat. It totally reminds me of Mom. I am making it tomorrow. I just made to whole chickens and cooking Bones broth now. Perfect timing. This us totally an affordable sidedish. Or a stretcher food. I can see many additions for add ins
Love this rice a roni!!!!
Oh my gosh, that looks great!! How easy-peasy can we get!!?? 😁 I might add in some leftover meat of some sort, and/or some veggies (I keep lots of frozen mixed veggies on hand.). Thanks very much, Mary!! You're the best. ☝
Hope you enjoy!
You can buy the small pieces like that in the Latin iles at the store, there sold in mini bags.
Hi Mary I found you last month and now making fruit vinegars 🍓 on day 25 everything looking good. Thanks Mary. 💞
Thank you, Mary, for making my life a little easier :)
It looks delicious. I need to make this. Thank you for sharing.
Oh boy! I can hardly wait to make this, but using gluten-free pasta. Thank you so much!
I’ve been making this for years. It’s always so much better than the boxed mix.
Thank you Mary! I can’t wait to make it! It looks delicious and adds a spin on just having regular rice.
Hope you enjoy!
Looks delicious!!
This is wonderful!! I'm actually surprised at how easy it is. Thank you so much!!
Love rice a Roni. Had to give it up because of some of their additives. Now can make my own. Bless you Mary 😊
I love Rice A Roni😊 Thanks for sharing
Look delicious. A good side dish!
TY Mary, love rice a roni! Going to try this soon with the homemade bone broth I just did, and add in a can of chicken with bread and a vegetable, great budget friendly meal!! Thanks again!
Awesome! Thank you for the recipe. Can't wait to try it.
Thank you Mary! I used to make this when my kids were little. Haven't made it in years because I don't do boxed foods anymore. But I'm really excited to try this homemade version! And I bet with some cheese and some kind of meat added it would be wonderful stuffed into peppers for a main dish!
I love the idea of stuffing it into peppers! Love, Mary
Loved it!
Hamburger helper soon?
Looks like a much healthier way to prepare Rice-a-Roni and I'm sure that it tastes better than the box. Although I must admit, I keep a few boxes in my pantry for a really quick side dish.
