Made for 2013 Zaar Cookbook tag game and what a delicious side dish!!! I made as written only sauteing a little minced onion and garlic before adding to the mixture. So easy and such a delicious tasting dish. Going into my Favorites of 2013. Thank you for posting. Served along with chicken in tomatillo salsa and zucchini.Reply

This was a hit in our house! Even my husband, who does not like rice, ate it all and commented how he liked the "mexican taste" of it. I used salsa instead of rotel and made the rice in my rice cooker, then mixed in all the other ingredients. Super easy and super good!Reply

This was so easy and tasted great! My kids thought it was a little spicey because of the can of rotel. This will be made again for sure!Reply

It's 94 degrees here at noon, we're tired of sandwiches, and I wanted to make something for lunch that wouldn't heat up the house. I had put pork chops on the grill and needed something to go with them. I had just printed out this recipe last night as one to try when I needed something in a hurry and my DS thought we should try it today. Am I ever glad that I did! I had to finally put the dish away so we would have some leftover for tonight when we come from his baseball game. Made this in the same dish I mixed it in so only have one dish to wash! Thanks for a super easy and delicious recipe that I will definitely be making again. DS suggested mxing in some cooked chicken or browned ground beef and making a casserole of it--will have to try it that way also.Reply
