Mexican Rice Pilaf

This rice is my new staple to go with anything I make that is Mexican! Really, Really good!!

My husband said it turned out really well. He was raised on real mexican food so that's a compliment. I didn't add the jalapeno pepper due to little ones and I was worried it would make it too spicy. The tomato and cheese I just left out. It was still really good. I'll definately make this again. It was so fast thanks to the instant brown rice which is all I have in my cupboard.

One of the tastiest Mexican rice recipes I have come across, we very much enjpyed it!! I had no jalapeno peppers in, but did have some jalapeno havarti cheese, so used extra green bell pepper, (had no red), with the jalapeno cheese. Turned out wonderful !! Thanks for posting!

This was very good and very easy. I too used canned green chiles instead of jalapenos and a can of diced tomatoes instead of the fresh tomato. Medium spicy in my opinion. Delicious! Will definitely use again!

This was a good side dish for enchiladas since it isn't tomato sauce based. The only modifications I made were leaving out the jalapeno and tomato and I used less chili powder (so the kids would eat it). I also had to increase the amount of broth since my quick brown rice called a higher ratio of water to rice. My husband really liked this dish and went back for a huge helping of seconds. I thought it was pretty good but not my favorite - the cheese gave it good flavor but then the rice was kind-of gooey.
