Thanks to Kathleen I corrected the Spanish Rice dish from

directions in the recipe. Thanks Kathleen.

NOTES : Risa's notes:

 

* I used very little cayenne because I added one chopped

jalapeno to the peppers. Also, I added some hot sauce at

the end.

 

** I used Frontera Arbol Sauce but you can use your

favorite.

 

I used one jalapeno pepper in the peppers and I didn't

have raw brown rice so I used the basmati rice. I also

added some arbol sauce at the table.
