Sweet Dill Rice Bake (MTD 5 of 7)

This recipe was actually inspired by one of my little brother’s friends. Almost every time I visit him at his apartment, one of his roomates is making “Sweet Potato Rice” and although I never asked her about it, that phrase has stuck in my head and wouldn’t budge until I did something with it because it just sounds too delicious. I should probably ask her how she makes her sweet potato rice, but this is my take on the phrase, with a little added flavor of dill and some cheesy goodness.

Yesterday when I posted about Sonal’s wonderful gift of spices I included her recipe for Chai Tea, which I am totally addicted to by the way. It’s delicious. I bought an abundance of pears and some were really ripe, I had so many I couldn’t eat them fast enough so I decided to oven roast and refrigerate until I figured out what to do with them. I thought the pears would be awesome with the chai spice and making pear butter (just like apple butter) would be wonderful. It’s so unbelievably simple to make and incredibly delicious you will be amazed. The pear butter is wonderful on toast or bread, on hot cereal or eat it straight from the jar.
