Chicken isn't the focal point of this dish, which is why I use canned chicken. You can also substitute one shredded chicken breast instead of canned.

To serve: Set up toppings so each person can choose their own. An assembly-line arrangement works well, starting with the rice, then the sauce, then the toppings.

If you plan on making gravy, add 1/2 cup water to the pan before baking. Then drain the pan sauce after baking the meatballs and proceed with making the gravy.

I prefer my flatbread to be thin and crispy, so I roll it out as thin as possible. Norwegian flatbread is traditionally served with butter, as a side to meat and potato-based meals. For special occasions, it may be served with cheese or jam.

Preheat oven to 350F. Cover dough with a damp paper towel when not using. Take approximately 1/4 cup of dough, roll it into a ball, and proceed to roll it out with a rolling pin on a floured counter top. I like my flatbread very thin and crispy, like a cracker. Place rounds onto a cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until flatbread is lightly browned and crisp.

My family adds raisins to this rice pudding, but they're not my favorite so I left them out.This recipe is a little bit sweeter than the traditional. Feel free to reduce the amount of sugar.

Turn heat down to medium. Start adding milk to the rice, one cup at a time. After each cup is added, stir the rice and cook for 5 minutes or so, until most of the milk is absorbed into the rice. Continue with this process until all the milk is added. The rice is cooked low and slow - the whole process can take up to an hour. Once all the milk is added, stir in the sugar, vanilla extract, and salt.

Serve rice warm with butter and cinnamon on top. The rice can also be served cold, with melted butter on top.
