Red and White Rice

Kelly M.'s Note:

Simple rice with onion and red peppers. Allows you to leave it be while you take care of other dishes. Doubles nicely.

I thought this was a little bland, It needed to be jazzed up a bit with some more herbs and spices.

Quick and delicious! I was looking for a side dish for Mahi Mahi as well, and this was perfect. I used a sticky rice and one whole red pepper. Thanks for the great recipe, Kelly M!

Yum! This recipe couldn't have been more easy to prepare and won rave reviews from my hubby. I am not a pepper fan, but the sweetness of the red pepper was a nice blend with the rice. We served this with Grilled Mahi Mahi W/ Avocado Salsa.
