Rice with Peas and Almonds

This delicious side dish becomes to-die-for if you substitute Basmati rice for regular white rice.

1 cup white rice, cooked and allowed to cool
1 10 ounce package frozen green peas (no sauce), defrosted
˝ cup slivered almonds, toasted
1 cup chopped onion
˝ teaspoon thyme
˝ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon curry powder
4 Tablespoons margarine or butter

Melt the butter, add the spices and onion sauté until the onion is tender. Add the peas, toss with the onion and cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Add the rice and almonds and toss until heated through.
