In honor of the upcoming holidays post your rice dressing/ dirty rice recipe.

I do the same thing but use ground I-talian sausage instead

Dont knock it until you try it

Anything but livers and gizzards

I've also tried a few cheat recipes that come out pretty good.

do share. My kids will eat any type of dirty rice/dressing and I need a quick method that tastes ok.

Not a fan of making dirty rice, though I love it. The wet mix that Hebert's sells in Maurice is delicious. I add fresh chopped green onions at the end because I love green onions.

I've had that Zatarain's dirty rice made per the box directions by someone else. It's not dirty rice, but it's surprisingly good and well seasoned. It's basically the box and ground meat.

First

Dirty rice and rice dressing are not the same thing, IMO.

Dirty rice does not contain liver nor gizzards.

Rice dressing has either or.

The recipe i posted is pretty simple. My grandma would make it when she was alive and everyone loved it. After she died, the recipe was lost. My cousin, who was a chef at the time, could not replicate it. My brother tried and he couldn't get it.

I started to think of how it used to taste and came up with this recipe. My dad tried it, and he said this is the closest thing to maw maw's rice dressing he's ever had, and loves it. So i feel vindicated in getting the closest with that recipe. I know that my grandma didn't use those exact ingredients. She always bought the cheapest of stuff, and everything she made was pretty simple, but how she made it was the key, and she didn't have a recipe, just knew how to make it in her head.
