Sheryl Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Southern Cheesy Rice Pudding 1 Tablespoon Butter 2 Tablespoons Flour 3/4 teaspoon deied marjoram leaves 1.4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper 1+ 1/2 Cup Milk (Low fat works great) 1+1/2 Cups Shredded Cheddar cheese. About 6 ounces. 3 cups (Cooked) long grain white rice. 2 large egg white 1 large whole egg. You can use 3 whole eggs to make it richer. Using a couple of whites just makes it lower in fat and cholesterol. Cook rice and set aside. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a medium saucepan, melt butter and whisk in the flour, marjoram, salt, and pepper and cook for about 1 minute or until bubbly. Add milk. Cook whisking constantly, until the mixture starts thickening. Stir in the cheese until melted and thoroughly incorporated. In a medium size bowl, combine the rice, eggs. Stir and then put in the cheese mixture. Spoon or pour into a lightly greased 8X8X2 inch baking dish. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the center is set. Makes about 6 good size servings. I hope this is the one you are looking for. This is used as a main dish in Tennessee where all my family are from. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
