I'm not sure what went wrong, but my Mexican Green Rice didn't turn out well. The rice was dry and the sauce was too salty.

This recipe was a disaster! The rice was mushy and the sauce was too runny.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

This dish is a little bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover rice. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

I've tried many Mexican Green Rice recipes, but this one is by far the best. The rice is fluffy and flavorful, and the green sauce is the perfect balance of spicy and tangy.
