August 29, 2010: Mexican Rice

chipotle onion sauce in addition to dark beans. I had a quick scrabble or then the meshwork trying to honour a Mexican rice recipe that would operate upward our corn in addition to non require whatever to a greater extent than shopping, eventually settling on something fairly unproblematic from Spark Recipes.

It's straightforward to make, filling in addition to relatively healthy, but this was a fleck lacking inwards season inwards the end. I jurist when it's existence served upward amongst delicious chipotle-based sauce in addition to rich dark beans, it doesn't bespeak to offering upward a massive gustation sensation, but I was notwithstanding a picayune disappointed inwards the blandness of it. Don't instruct me wrong, it used upward the corn in addition to combined pretty good amongst the capsicums, beans in addition to spicy sauce, but I don't intend we've constitute the ideal Mexi-rice recipe only yet. Any suggestions?
