This is without a doubt one of our favorite side dishes. We serve it most often with Roast Beef, or Mexican food, and it is perfect with either. Here's what it is: Rice (brown or white), combined with sour cream, green chilis and cheese; delicious, cheesy perfection.

You will need

2 cup Sour Cream Salt and Pepper to taste ¾ lbs Cheddar Cheese or Montery Jack Cheese (about 3 and 1/2 cups grated) 5 cup Cooked Rice (brown or white rice works fine… we often use brown). 2 tbsp Butter 1 cup Chopped green Chilies
