The combination of these ingredients are fantastic! I have made this twice, both times as a side for guests when I make a taco bar. I shredded the Monterey Jack cheese the 2nd time, and it seemed to be a better mix. I LOVE this recipe!

This is soooo close to my mother's recipe that has been in the family for over 60 years! I LOVE IT! However, mom's called for 1/4 cup softened butter in the rice mixture.

With this recipe, I used shredded monterrey jack cheese instead. I layer 1/2 of the rice mixture, topped with 1/2 the cheese, another layer of the rice mixture, then the other 1/2 of the cheese on top. COMES OUT PERFECT!

BTW...this recipe goes GREAT with the Slow-Cooked Flank Steak recipe on this website..

I modified this by only putting in 1 cup of sour cream & substituting a can of fiesta nacho cheese soup for the other cup of sour cream. Also added 1 cup shreeded monterey jack cheese & added garlic powder & a little more salt. Turned out very tasty but next time i think i will add corn & cubed chicken.
