As I was looking through the Safeway sales circular yesterday I noticed a coupon for Mission flour tortillas for just $1.29/pack. Time to stock up (they can be frozen)! My kids love tortillas and eat them right out the package for a snack. We also use them to make tacos, enchiladas, burritos and quesadillas. And for a quick desert we put them in the microwave with some butter, sugar and cinnamon.
I thought today I would post a great side dish that would be fantastic with whatever you decide to make with your tortillas. I looked a long time to find a Spanish rice dish that I liked and was easy to prepare. When I found this recipe my search was over. My bonus daughter Alexandra loves this rice. She always tells me that it is bangin'. I hope you like it too.
BANGIN' SPANISH RICE
2 TBS oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups uncooked white rice
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup chunky salsa
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Mix rice into skillet, stirring often. When rice begins to brown, stir in chicken broth and salsa. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes until liquid has been absorbed. Fluff with a fork and serve.
