This is a family favorite side dish, especially with Mexican menues. It is off the Rice-a-Roni site and is very easy to prepare. You can make it a main course, if you'd like, by adding browned ground beef or turkey.

I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can add or subtract ingredients to suit your own taste. I like to add a little bit of diced jalapeƱo for a bit of spice.
