What great tasting rice to go with a mexican menue of Recipe#107570 and Recipe#318315 Thanks for posting. I'll be making this again soon. -
The family loved this! I keep a jar of rendered bacon grease in my fridge and cooked bacon in my freezer so this was a quick and easy addition to a southwestern supper. DH added a bit more hot sauce but I thought that it was perfect as is! Thanks LoriLee in TX.

Enjoy baking and collecting recipes as well as counted cross stitch, scrapbooking and quilting. I usually have two or three different projects going simultaneously.
Fell in love with baking when my paternal grandmother let my 4-year old self help her make peanut butter cookies. Finally began baking on my own at age nine. I've always loved cakes, so my first project was Chocolate Mayo Cake. Through the years I've progressed enough to bake a few wedding cakes. But cookies are my passion.
