Creole Rice
Total Time: Prep/Total Time: 10 min.,Makes: 4 servings
I've found a fast and fantastic way to turn leftover rice into a spectacular side dish. I spice it up with Creole seasoning and pepper to give it a boost of flavor, then sprinkle it with paprika for color. Rest assured that no one will figure out the zippy combination is a "second-day dish".

- 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 2 cups cooked long grain rice
Directions
