Overall, I thought this Spanish rice was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This Spanish rice was a bit too dry for my liking. I think it could have used more liquid.

This Spanish rice was a little too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more spices.

I'm not a huge fan of bell peppers, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The bell peppers added a nice depth of flavor to the rice.

I was skeptical about using frozen peas in this recipe, but they actually added a nice sweetness and crunch. I'll definitely be using them again next time.
