I love spanish rice so when I moved to a place that hardly has any mexican food options I was so bummed. I recently found a really easy and cheap recipe, I’ve been eating it all week alongside canned refried beans with shredded cheese mixed in. Slap some lime juice and sour cream on it…… I think this is the least I’ve spent for my weekly grocery haul in years.

Recipe:
2 cups of rice
10oz can of Rotel (tomatoes/green chiles)
3oz tomato paste
Spoonful of taco seasoning
2.5 cups of chicken stock

Mix it all together and then run your rice cooker on the white rice setting. When it’s done, open it and stir, and then run it a second time. Since there’s extra ingredients in there the rice takes longer to cook. Enjoy 🫶

    Recipe:
    2 cups of rice, 10oz Rotel, 3oz tomato paste, spoonful of taco seasoning, 2.5 cups of chicken stock (can also use water, just add a little more taco seasoning for flavor)

    If you like spicy food, you could mix in red pepper flakes or some hot sauce.

    Mix all together, run rice cooker, mix again, run the rice cooker a second time. Rice cookers take longer to cook when there’s extra ingredients in them.

    Enjoy 🧑‍🍳

    Love using my rice cooker for basically full dishes, often put extra stuff there like sasuage, shrooms, onions. Need to try your recipe 🙂
