Mexican Rice
September 10, 2009 – 7:17 pmThis was an experiment that turned out very well. I’ll definitely be making this again! I wanted to see if I could just cook Mexican rice in my rice cooker, and it turned out even better than I hoped. It was very easy and tasty. We just had it with some refried beans for a light Mexican dinner tonight, but it would be great in or alongside burritos too.
Mexican Rice
Serves 4
1 ⅓ cups white rice (2 rice measures)
1 ½ cups water (3 rice measures)
1 tbsp Chicken Better Than Bouillon
¼ tsp garlic powder
⅛ tsp onion powder
⅛ tsp black pepper
½ tsp dried parsley
dash cayenne
1 can (10 oz) Ro★Tel (diced tomatoes and green chiles)
Dump all the ingredients into a rice cooker and cook for the usual white rice cycle. Stir well and serve hot.

Have faith in your rice cooker! Looks great and as you use your rice cooker more, I’m sure it will get easier 🙂
