Green Chili Rice

Cook the rice according to package directions and allow to cool slightly. Mix sour cream and green chilis into rice. Put half of rice mixture into casserole dish and spread half the cheddar cheese on top. Add the rest of the rice, and top with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered at 350-F for 30 minutes. Pepper Jack Alternative: Replace cheddar with pepper jack cheese. Mix half the shredded cheese directly into the rice when you add the sour cream and green chilis. Put entire mixture into casserole and top with remaining pepper jack cheese. Bake as directed above.
