  1. I will never make spanish rice on the stove again. This was so yummy! This was right up my families alley they loved it! Even my mom wanted the recipe! I did add some diced green chilies, chichen broth, real onions, and a pinch of salt. Very flavorful and I'm sure a litle healthier since you're not browning the rice with oil first. Great post, thank you!
     
  2. To the 2 cups of dry white rice, I used garlic & onion powder (all i had), the cumin, the chili, and then mixed the dry ingredient before put in cooker. In a two cup container i added a can of rotel tomatoes, the tomato sauce, the salsa and my 1 cup of water , (my liquid ingredients came out to a little over 2 cups, so that's my usual rice to water ratio). I did add in one half a chopped jalapeno, because here in Texas we like our Mexican rice spicy. What i should have done was stir everything together BEFORE i added to rice cooker. I also had to add in 1/2 cup of water and run 1/2 halfway again because my rice didnt get quite soft enough. Definitely will make again, and will increase the jalapeno and chili next time.
     
  3. Flavor was very nice. I added mild salsa and 1/2 can of green chilis, and it came out flavorful, but not hot spicy. I think I had too much liquid as mine came out as mush. I wash my rice beforehand, so I suspect that is the difference. Anyone rinse rice and have recommendations?
     
  4. Way too spicy. I followed the directions minus the optional things. I used mild everything.
     
  5. Muy excellente! I did half brown/half white rice and instead of water I used chicken broth. I used 3 cups of broth in place of the 1 cup of water. I added an Anaheim pepper and half of a small red onion. Very tasty and easy.
