<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nThis rice is great as a side dish; or my favorite way, layer it in a tortilla with some cheese and refried beans for a fabulous homemade BRC burrito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Traditionally Spanish or Mexican Rice is made with white rice, but the brown rice adds some extra whole grain goodness. It takes a little longer to cook, but with the spices and sauce you don't notice the flavor or texture difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This recipe toasts the rice a bit before steaming. This cooks the outer starch which keeps the rice from sticking together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
