This was good! I used a microwave rice cooker 7 minutes at 70% power, rest about 3 minutes, then again 7 minutes at 70% power in a 1200 Watt microwave. After resting the 3 minutes I gently stirred to mix all the ingredients. The liquid was fine in this recipe using Calrose rice. I have used twice, monterey jack cheese and also Velveeta cheese. The Velveeta blends better for flavor and also mixes well. I also used Sysco chicken base with water for my chicken broth and that is wonderful to use with rice dishes.

    Very good and will make again! I made just 1/2 a recipe, since there were only 3 of us. (I have a little tiny rice cooker.) My rice nearly scorched on the bottom this time, even before I put the cheese in but I stirred it up (sort of a golden brown crust) and DH and DS thought it was supposed to look like that and ate it right up, LOL. Thanks for a good side dish; it went great with chicken fajitas.

    Good recipe. I used mild salsa and it was still a tad spicy for us. Just a warning, I needed more than my rice maker makes so I did this in the microwave the second time. Don't! It was a mistake. The rice would not get cooked so it came out a mess.
