  1. Yummy rice! I used fat-free half-and-half and left off the cilantro, otherwise made as directed. Easy to make, great flavor, and not too spicy. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
     
  2. *Love* this! I had arborio rice, so I skipped the whipping cream and made it more as a traditional risotto. I served it with some pork chops marinated in garlic and lime and some green beans. It was absolutely delicious, and I'm sure I'll be making this often. Thanks for posting!

  4. We absolutely loved this! Sweet, creamy and cheesy, wonderful with any Mexican meal. I did up the cumin to 1/2 tsp.
