Dirty Rice With Mushrooms image

This vegetarian version of Southern dirty rice replaces the traditional ground beef and chicken livers with hearty mushrooms, creamy black-eyed peas and flavorful spices for a satisfying one-pot meal. The recipe starts with the classic Cajun holy trinity - onion, green bell pepper and celery in equal parts - to create a flavorful foundation. Mushroom broth adds even more depth and reinforces the earthy cremini mushrooms, while a drizzle of hot sauce adds tang and kick. Serve with simple leafy greens or chopped salad.

Provided by Miss Diggy

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (10 ounce) package frozen peas, cooked and drained
1 (4 1/2 ounce) jar sliced mushrooms
1/2 lb Velveeta cheese, cubed
2 1/4 cups cooked rice

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This recipe calls for cremini mushrooms, but you can also use shiitake, oyster, or even dried mushrooms. Using a variety of mushrooms will add flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the mushrooms, be sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to steam instead of brown.
  • Cook the rice until it is al dente. Al dente rice is slightly firm to the bite and has a slight chewiness. This is the perfect texture for this dish.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so be sure to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or Parmesan cheese would be a good choice.
  • Season the dish to taste. Be sure to taste the dish before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Conclusion:

This cheesy rice with mushrooms and peas is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give this one a try!
