Easy Spanish Rice


Easy Spanish Rice

When I was a kid I use to make this for my family quite often. I bet a lot of you did too.
Here is how it is prepared from Minute Rice.

Spanish Rice

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup of water
1/4 cup celery
1/4 cup onion
1/4 cup green pepper 
1 Small can of tomatoes
1/2 Teas. chili powder
dash each of fresh ground pepper and red pepper
1/4 teas of sea salt
dash of Franks Red Hot sauce (that about 4 drops)
1/2 cup of minute rice prepared.
1 package onion soup mix

Directions:

Combine all ingredients except for rice and bring to boil then simmer covered for five minutes.
Add the cooked minute rice and combine.
Your done! That's all their is to it.

Sometimes I add ground beef to make it a complete dinner. 
I decided that I was in the mood for the beef flavor so I added the onion soup mix. Its up to you if you do it as well.
Other times I serve as is as a side dish or a vegetarian dinner.
You decide the way you like it. I know its is really good no matter how you decide to eat it!
