El Rancho Eggs With Rice
"This is a nice simple dish to put together, I usually scale this down to serve one when hubby's not home for dinner and eat straight from the dish, it's a great healthy one dish meal, could even be a fancy brekky if you like."

A very tasty and quick-to-prepare week-night meal. I halved the recipe for just two of us, so there's some left over for another meal for one. The only changes I made were to use my Vegetable Stock Recipe #135453 instead of water, and to add 2 cloves of finely minced garlic. Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders 2008. -
This got a big "yummm" from hubby, so that's 5 stars in my book. This was a perfect meal for my super lazy Saturday... I really did not feel like cooking but didn't want take out. So simple, yet still pretty healthy. I used a whole grain mixture instead of rice, which naturally took more time to cook. I didn't change the amount of water and it worked fine. I used 3 eggs and a low fat extra sharp cheddar. Thanks for posting! I would make it again. -
Fabulous week nigt vegetarian meal - mine did take much longer to cook - closer to an hour but I think that is my ovens fault - this was so tasty and enjoyed by the whole family - I added a few chopped mushies to enhance mushroon stock cubes - thanks for posting mandy from oz -
Quick, easy and nice flavor! I made a single portion for lunch and it was really nice. I don't have mushroom stock cubes so I used vegetable stock in place of the water, cubes and salt. Also don't have tasty cheese (or don't know what it is in the States) so I used a shredded cheese blend (sorry for the sea of melted cheese in the picture!) Great dish,I'll make again!

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa.
Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks.
As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
