MY SPICE MEXICAN RICE



My Spice Mexican Rice image

I love Mexican anything, when it comes to food. It has to have alot of flavor since my taste buds don't work well. This is my version of rice I make with my green chili enchiladas or other Mexican dishes. I cook it in my rice cooker for easier preperation. Enjoy!

Add water, tomato saauce and spices. Reduce heat and simmer covered until rice is tender and liquid is adsorbed, about 35 minutes. I use a rice cooker to cook mine.
