Ingredients

  • 1 (12 ounce) package brown rice
  • 2 bell peppers
  • 2 onions
  • 4 celery ribs (tops and all)
  • 1/2 lb. chicken liver (optional)
  • 1/8 lb. ground beef or 1/8 lb pork
  • (I like to use both 1 clove garlic 4 tablespoons pecans or walnuts(optional)
  • 2 tablespoons bacon drippings
  • Tabasco sauce
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • salt
  • cayenne
  • black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Boil rice according to package directions.

Drain.

Brown rice has a slightly coarser grain than white.

Chop onions, celery, bell peppers and garlic finely (use blender).

In bacon drippings sauté chopped vegetables until the mixture cooks down, about 30 minutes.

Add chopped chicken livers and ground meats and cook until done, then mash.

The mixture looks "dirty" and soupy.

Add remaining seasonings and nuts to taste, and mix with rice.

May be prepared in morning and reheated.

Additional water may be needed.

When adding seasoning use your own judgment, I like mine spicy.
