I use the 10 minute bags of brown rice for convenience, but you can easily use
regular "loose" rice.
Chelle's Easy Mexican
Rice
makes 8
half-cup servings

Water
1 Tbsp Mrs Dash Southwest Chipotle
1 tsp Mrs Dash Extra Spicy
1 Tbsp Chili Powder
1 14.5 oz can Fire Roasted Tomatoes with Chipotle Peppers

appropriate level.
Add seasonings.
Bring to a boil and add the rice. Boil 10 minutes.
Drain well and pour rice into a bowl.

Variations...
In place of the mexican seasonings, use any other combo! I love the Mrs Dash
Garlic & Herb for this, too! You can do the same with quinoa!
