Mexican Rice

Mexican rice is a seasoned side dish of sautéed and simmered rice flavored with tomato, onion, garlic, and spices, often with added peas, carrots, or peppers. Commonly served alongside tacos, enchiladas, beans, or grilled proteins and used in burrito bowls, people track it to record portion size and key nutrients (carbohydrates, sodium, etc.) or to account for specific ingredients and dietary preferences.
