Instructions: * Note: Yellow rice is sold in packages in the ethnic foods section of supermarkets. If you cant find it, substitute regular long-grain white rice cooked with a pinch of saffron or turmeric to turn it yellow.

Prepare rice according to package directions, set aside.

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and garlic, cook 3 minutes, or until softened. Add tomatoes, artichokes, and peas, cover and cook 3 minutes.

Stir in the prepared rice and tomato paste, cook 4 minutes, or until the artichokes are cooked through, stirring occasionally.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

Comments: This looks and tastes like a real Spanish paella - minus the hard work. If youd like a heartier dish, just stir in a pound of cooked shrimp or a cup or two of cooked diced ham.

Do-Ahead Tip: You can make this 2 days ahead and refrigerate. To reheat, place in a saucepan, sprinkle lightly with water, and warm over low heat. Or place in a loosely covered baking dish and reheat in a preheated 300 degree oven or the microwave. Serve hot or at room temperature.
