Grandma's Apples and Rice

SUBMITTED BY: Joan Kasura

"LIKE MOST women of her generation, my husband's grandmother was a 'no-measure cook'. This recipe of hers suffered as it was handed down, so I made an effort to work out the kinks. Finally, my husband pronounced the results as good as he remembered, and we declared it the 'official' recipe. -Joan Kasura, Silver Spring, Maryland"
