This was the best Mexican rice ever!! I have the strangest time getting Mexican rice recipes right and this one was absolutely perfect!! So easy and very delicious. I used brown rice instead and increased the cooking time to 50 min. I also used 3 hot peppers from my garden. The rice had a really great flavor and a little bit of spice from the peppers. Thanks so much for this recipe. I am definitely holding on to it!!

Fabulous! This was so easy to make and the flavor was amazing! I did not add the frozen vegetables, but rather, a diced jalapeño and a diced red anaheim pepper. I also used red onions for color. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. I did add just a little bit of ground cumin to the rice as well. I served the rice with stuffed Pork Tenderloin with Cilantro Lime Pesto (recipe# 9746), and the flavor combination was fantastic! Be sure to garnish with freshly chopped cilantro when serving...that burst of flavor is amazing! Thanks!

Great flavour and very simple to make. This is something that once you get to the lid on and simmer stage you can set the timer and walk away. Love that! I reduced the oil to about 2 teaspoons and it worked no problems! I used regular long grain rice and chopped fresh vegetables (as I hardly ever have any frozen). I used carrot, beans , mushroom and corn. Served with grilled chicken and salsa for a tasty and healthy meal.
