This made for a very nice dinner! I didn't have instant rice so used normal - cooked til nearly done then simmered in the mixture for a few minutes. I served this with sour cream, salsa and a salad - the recipe made heaps too, I halved it and there's still two serves of leftovers! Thanks for posting.
