Ham & Cheese Rice Cakes with Vegetable Sauce
You probably already have the ingredients for this low fat dish in your pantry, so get your crafty chef hat on and make a cake. A rice cake.
Ingredients & Instructions
- 2 cups finely diced Frick’s ham
- 2 cups water
- 1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1-1/2 tsp. granulated chicken bouillon
- 1 pkg. (16 oz.) frozen mixed vegetables
- 3 cups long-grain white rice, cooked
- 1-1/2 cups shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- 3 eggs
Step 1
Blend water, tomatoes, and bouillon in a blender or food processor until smooth.
Step 2
Pour blend into a large skillet; bring to a boil. Add vegetables; cook 5 minutes or until heated through. Keep warm until rice cakes are ready.
Step 3
Mix rice, ham, cheese, and eggs in a large bowl until well blended. Use 1/4 cup scoop to portion rice mixture for each cake onto a separate large skillet or griddle sprayed with non-stick cooking spray; flatten each with the back of a spatula to form a 3″ round patty.
Step 4
Cook patties on medium-high heat 3-4 minutes per side or until firm and golden brown on both sides. Transfer to sauce in other skillet. Repeat with remaining rice mixture to make a total of 18 cakes.
Step 5
Place 3 rice cakes in a shallow bowl and ladle vegetable sauce over the top to serve.
