Spanish Rice - Central California Style
"Lets face it, Mexican food is sooooooooooo different in different states, sometimes, even within the same state.
I add Chicken Base (from Costco) to my water, instead of Chicken broth. and we just love this with Sunny Select Southwest Roasted Tomato Salsa with Cilantro (medium), however, I think you would love this with your favorite chunky salsa!"

<p>Hi! I love in Central California. I work with computers all day long. My favorite thing to do it to cook when I get home. I could not possibly tell you my favorite cookbook................because I can't count the books I own, you might call it a hobby, or a passion....my Husband calls it a vice! <br /> <br />I love to rubber stamp, anything! <br /> <br />If I had a month off, I would pickup my bags head to the beach and read. When I was tired reading, I would cook! At the beach, in my trailer! <br /> <br />PS.....I just love the photo of me.....now, if you think I still look that way...........well lets just say, vision gray hair....</p>
