SOUTHWESTERN RICE

I created this colorful side dish after eating something similar at a restaurant. It complements any Tex-Mex meal wonderfully. Sometimes I add cubes of grilled chicken breast to the rice to make it a meal in itself. -Michelle Dennis, Clarks Hill, Indiana

SOUTHWESTERN FRIED RICE

After I made this I wasn't sure why it was called a "fried rice" but I guess if you look at it from a spicy southwestern way. Even though it's not fried it's a great dish. Very fast and easy to make!!
