Vegetable Rice

'Melt the butter or margarine in a pot, then add the rice and onion

Cook over medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until lightly browned.'

'Add 2 cups of water, the chicken bouillon cube, and salt to taste

Bring to a boil, stirring well to dissolve the bouillon cube, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is fluffy.'

'Drain the vegetables and mix them with the rice

Serve hot, garnished with a sprinkle of water if desired.'
