Mexican Red Rice ( Arroz Rojo )

Happy. 2024, meows!

Whew! Well, we made it to a whole new year and let’s hope this one is filled with even more beautiful deliciousness! It’s been a hot minute since I’ve written and posted here… Life just takes over sometimes… But I’m back with another yummy and easy to prepare side dish that will add so much flavor to your Mystic Meals! A friend of mine asked me if I had a recipe for Mexican Red Rice and if I could make a video tutorial showing her how to prepare it, since she’s more of a visual learner. Of course I was happy to oblige.

There are many different versions of red rice throughout Spanish culture, and this recipe is from an old Mexican lady I used to work with at a restaurant years ago. This is how she made it, and really is packed with flavor. Serve this with your favorite type of beans, meat or fish, in a soup, or enjoy it on it’s own! I think I agree with the saying that “rice is life” and is a kitchen essential. If you have rice, you have a meal. And it’s great to be able to change it up by making it in different ways.

Here’s the video tutorial for your viewing pleasure… 😛

And there you have it, dear ones! My first of many posts of 2024! I hope you meows give this recipe a try and let me know how it turned out! And thanks for stopping by! Until we eat again… Bone app the teef! 😝 Happy Cooking!

Cheers, hugs, & meows!
