Uncle Ben's arrives at Sobey's West, and now at my house-woohoo! (picture)

A tower of beauty. The price, not so much...

Why do I feel like playing Jenga?

Attachment 275862 You take an Uncle Bens from the bottom and you put it on top. You take an Uncle Bens from the middle and you put it on top. That's how you build the tower, you just don't stop. You keep building that tower putting Uncle Bens on top. It teeters and it totters, but you don't give up; it weebles and it wobbles but you build it on up. You take an Uncle Bens from the bottom and you put it on top. You take an Uncle Bens from the middle and you put it on top, till someone knocks it over, and that's when you stop, but you can start all over putting Uncle Bens on top. Attachment 275862

Haha, I think I got carried away with the thought of all those chicken coupons first, then I thought, oh yes, lots of rice to!

thanks morningrose for the recipe. I will try it next time when we fix chicken :)

if anyone has anymore recipes please share. I have two tubs that i don't know what to do. I'm used to regular rice so this is different. TIA.

the tubs I bought had the coupon sticker on the lid, so we may not be able to see them in this picture...

Attachment 276339
Taking inspiration from MorningRose's recipe I sauteed grated carrot, zucchini, mushroom, celery, green onion, & parsley (really whatever was in the fridge) together. I added some Mrs Dash for flavor. Then I added in an equal amount of cooked Uncle Ben's original rice. Shrimps baked in the oven with ginger & garlic topped off the rice nicely.
It was delicious and so simple. I am loving this rice.

Excellent Work!! I have a bunch of $1.00 off Uncle Ben's minute rice I am waiting for someone to put it on sale! Thumbs up on the chicken coupons those are really amazing!!!

Waheeyyyyyyyy

@Lavender Lady , it looks soooo gooood

That shrimp dish looks amazing! I have a ton of these coupons, just waiting for a sale!

If you are in Ontario and have a FreshCo in your area, Maple Leaf Prime boneless, skinless chicken breasts are on sale for $4.97 a pound. The FreshCo stores I went to had nice, small packs of 2 breasts in each. I bought 3 packs, priced at $4.03, $4.06 and $4.08 for a grand total, after coupons, of 17 cents! :)

I purchased a large number of the Uncle Ben's rice tubs. Since the cost of the rice ($5.99 + 1,000 pts - $1.00 coupon + PC Plus personal offers) was far less than the value of the coupons inside, I view it as an investment in future chicken deals. :biggrin: Since these coupons don't expire until the end of 2015, I'm looking forward to almost a whole year of chicken deals! ;) (Plus, my local SA Food Bank is happy with my donations of rice tubs. :))

:first:

i have tried one of the recipes inside the Uncle Bens tub and it was super! I made General Tso's Chicken & Rice, yum. The sauce was so good! Look forward to trying the other Chicken &price recipe.

I must try that one-the chicken fried rice was also good!

Oh yum--must try both recipes inside--maybe this weekend.

In the Sobey's West flyer starting tomorrow, Apr 3, they are advertising the tubs of Uncle Ben's rice (with the $10 of coupons) for $5.99.
If you go on 10% Tue (April 7), you could get a tub for $5.40. Hope you can find some if you haven't already!

4 cups water
2cups rice
1/3 cup of soya sauce
1/3 cup of oil
1 10oz can pieces and stem mushrooms including juice
put all into a covered casserole dish
bake 350 for 1hr or little longer if too much liquid, taste that rice is done.
easiest rice dish ever

This recipe is worth sharing again with all the rice that alot of us have. I've made it several times since @lshortt shared it with us. It is simply excellent!

These tubs are back at my loblaws with the same coupons. They were around $7.00 per tub but looked like they might be on the flyer based on their placement at the end of the aisle. I did not buy them because I am still drowning in rice from last year :) This year they are better sealed. Looks like there is more free chicken in our futures.

Unfortunately the coupons aren't the same as last year (not as good)

http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/411967-...3/#post6535378

they were $5.88 at no frills

Walmart in Vernon BC has them for $5.88 so check your WM. I checked online to see if they would come up but they don't, so you might want to check in store if you are looking for them. I bought 6 tubs brown and white and the sticker indicating there was coupons inside were on the top of all the tubs.

Is there a coupon to use on this Uncle Bens?
