Savory Rice Croquettes

• 2 cups cooked rice
• 2 medium eggs
• 1/2 cup Biscuit Mix
• 2 teaspoons onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

These are deep-fried, so if you are avoiding all deep-fat frying, then skip to another recipe. For those who are willing to go for the forbidden pleasure of deef-frying, here goes!

In a medium sized bowl combine the cooked rice and eggs. Add the biscuit mix, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper and salt. Stir the whole thing up so that it is sticky and gooey. Heat your fat up hot enough for french fries. Drop the mixture in by spoonfuls. Fry a few at a time until they are golden brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and let them drain on paper towels or a brown paper bag. Serve with Thousand Island Dressing, or mustard. These are good when you are just having veggies for lunch or supper. They add a nice texture and flavor contrast.
