Savory Turkey Porcupines

I spent a summer with my great aunt. One night, she made me, a dish from the 1950's that she called "Minute Rice Casserole". She said the recipe used to be on the back of the box of minute rice. My grandmother called them porcupines and I liked the sound of that better. These are very affordable to make but no matter what I tried always so bland. One day I was at the store and discovered a spice mix for Nasi Goreng. Something clicked and I said I wonder if that would make porcupines more tasty. I made plain ones today but you can also add peppers, onion, and/or tomatoes. Also very good with ground beef, it just takes a bit longer to cook.

Steps
- 1
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl mix together one packet of Nasi Goreng seasoning and rice along with the water. You can also add a can of drained diced tomatoes, peppers, and or onion. This is the basic recipe.
- 2
Put the mixture into six large muffin tins. If you want more flavor take a second package of Nasi Goreng seasoning and dab on top of each "muffin porcupine". Bake for 45 minutes for ground turkey and about an hour if you are using ground beef.
- 3
I paired mine with a steamers brand broccoli and cheese. These go great with mixed veggies, broccoli whatever you like.
