SPICY SPANISH PORK CHOPS AND RICE CASSEROLE
This is so flavorful. It is a combination of a couple different recipes and my own personal touches. We like things spicy, so use mild rotel and omit the jalapeno and tabasco if you don't want spicy. I'm going to try this with brown rice next time, I have a feeling it would be really good. I'll let you know!

SPICY AMERICAN SPANISH RICE
Great Spanish rice as a main course meal. I usually serve it with mashed potatoes. Can be made less spicy using regular tomatoes.

SPICY SPANISH RICE
This is a tasty dish perk up any "ho-hum" dinner. We especially like it with chicken enchiladas. I also prepare it for potlucks and family get-togethers. It's a little different to bake rice, but it's handy to not have to watch it on the stove. You can make the rice less spicy by choosing a more mild variety of the canned tomatoes with green chilies.
