100% would make again

You'll find my Spanish Rice is so much better than any boxed variety found in grocery stores. Best of all, it can be prepared in about the same time as those so-called convenience foods using items found in your pantry.—Anne Yaeger, Washington DC, Washington

I made this for a first time for a dinner party and it was great everyone liked it. You wouldn't think with the simple items in the recipe but it was good. I am not ever going to use the box mix again.
