Seasoned Rice Mix

Mix up a batch of this seasoned rice mix

for your pantry or as small gifts.

 Uncle Ben's and a few seasonings.

 Combine all ingredients in a large bowl
and whisk to combine well.

Divide mixture into 3 containers.

Snack size Ziploc bags are a perfect fit.

 I formed plastic wrap on the bottom of
a glass before inserting into a mug.
I have lots of Christmas mugs that I pick up
when thrifting. See my collection HERE.

Add  directions, and ribbon and it

make a nice little food gift in a Christmas mug. 

It can be part of a gift basket, 

or just tuck in a check for your Christmas tips 

to all the people whose services you have used

 throughout the past year; mailman, yardman, salon, 

dog groomer etc.
