Delicious Almond Rice Pilaf image

A delicious side dish for beef or chicken. A great change from plain rice or boxed rice mixes. I like to serve this with grilled chicken or with saucy cube steaks.

I'm not a big fan of almonds, but I still enjoyed this recipe. The rice was cooked perfectly and the flavors were well-balanced.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I always have some rice in the fridge and this is a great way to turn it into a delicious meal.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more spices.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the results are always delicious. I often add some chopped vegetables to the rice, like carrots, peas, or bell peppers.
