Pecan Rice

My sister-in-law Wilma Foster is a wonderful cook. This is one of the dishes she brings to our family gatherings.

1 cup uncooked rice

½ cup butter, melted

½ cup finely chopped onion

1 cup pecans, chopped

1 (10.75-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup

1 (10.75-ounce) can beef consommé

1 soup can of water

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl mix together the rice, butter, onion, pecans, mushroom soup, beef consommé, and water. Pour into a 2-quart casserole dish. Cover and bake for 1 hour or until the rice has absorbed all the liquid.

Makes 8 servings.
