Mexican Rice III

Submitted by: ALANASMOM
This is an excellent authentic Mexican rice recipe (not to be confused with Spanish rice) that I make as a side dish with all of my Mexican dishes. The key is cooking the rice properly and using good quality chicken broth or stock.

Irish Chicken and Dumplings

Submitted by: Claire McLaughlin
Here's a cozy dish to comfort on a dark and stormy night. A creamy, fragrant stew of chicken, celery, onions, carrots, peas and potatoes plays host to biscuit dough, dropped by the spoonful into the boiling hot liquid. Simmer until the dumplings are done.

I am continuously asked to bring this dip for parties and family get-togethers. People gather around the platter until it's gone. Five layers of Mexican-inspired delights are topped by a layer of vegetables, then smothered in cheese and garnished with black olives. The vegetables may be varied according to taste.

I first learned about this salad when a relative of mine made it. I liked it so much that I asked for the recipe. I modified it a little by adding the bacon to it. It's a delicious salad, and the sauce really enhances the flavor!
