I looking for a Mexican Rice recipe and this sure sounds easy and looks delicious. I like using Retel and we'll try it soon.
ReplyDeleteI love Mexican Rice. It disappoints me when some Mexican Restaurants will just use instant or frozen (you can always tell the difference) Your recipe is a keeper. I have to try it this weekend, hubby loves Mexican dishes.
ReplyDeleteI would be all over that, but I'd have to make it just for myself. My girlfriend won't eat anything mixture of rice and tomatoes. Heh.
ReplyDeleteIt looks perfect and delicious!! I think that the Rotel tomatoes are a perfect addition for Red Rice, Spanish Rice or Mexican rice!
ReplyDeleteI could eat rice everyday!
ReplyDeleteWe love Mexican rice. Definitely gonna give this a try. I like that the tomatoes are pulverized. I'm not especially fond of tomatoes but like what they add to a dish.
