Categories     Brown Rice

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon salt
1 garlic clove, minced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup brown rice, NOT INSTANT
2 cups fat-free chicken broth
1 (10 ounce) can Ro-Tel tomatoes
1/2 cup bell peppers or 1/2 cup red pepper, chopped
1/2 cup onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oil. Add rice and cook until golden and toasted. Add and lightly saute onion, bell pepper, and garlic.
  • Put salt, 1/2 cup of tomatoes (undrained) and broth in a blender. Process till smooth.
  • Add liquid from blender to the rice mixture slowly. You can drain the rest of the tomatoes and add them to the rice at this point if you want extra tomato.
  • Bring to a boil, cover, turn heat to low, and simmer until rice is tender, about 1 hour. (Or however long brown rice needs to simmer - my package says 1 hour.)
  • Don't remove the lid during the cooking process.
  • If you don't have fresh garlic, you can add 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder to the blender.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

14 1/2 ounces tomatoes with jalapenos
1 cup rice
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Pour entire can of tomatoes (including liquid) into pan. Add water, rice, and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use brown rice for a healthier option. Brown rice is a whole grain that is higher in fiber and nutrients than white rice.
  • Rinse the rice before cooking. This will help to remove the starch and make the rice less sticky.
  • Use a combination of vegetable broth and water for cooking the rice. This will add flavor and depth to the dish.
  • Add a variety of vegetables to the rice. This will make the dish more colorful and nutritious.
  • Season the rice with your favorite Mexican spices. Some popular choices include chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder.
  • Top the rice with your favorite toppings. Some popular choices include cheese, sour cream, and guacamole.

Weight Watchers Core Mexican Rice is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that the whole family will enjoy.
