[recipe*] Tex-Mex Rice

[Guest guest]

This is a great rice recipe that you can eat

warm or cold. I like to make this when we are

having tacos and everyone can put some on

their plates or add it to the taco they are creating.

It is very easy to make and you can play around

with the recipe to make it more spicy to suite your

taste.
