This is my favorite Mexican Rice recipe!

Mexican Rice

3 tbls. vegetable oil

2/3 cup diced onion

1 cup chopped green pepper

1 1/2 cups uncooked instant white rice

1 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. chili powder

1 - 8 oz. can tomato sauce

2 tsp. salt

1 clove garlic, minced

1 bay leaf

3 cups water

Saute onions in oil; add rice and stir until mixed with oil.  Add all other ingredients and stir until combined.  Cover and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and simmer for 30 - 40 minutes until rice is tender.  Remove bay leaf before serving.

I usually make enchiladas with this.  I'm sure its not an authentic recipe but it's just the way my family likes them.  And I once made a 3 milk cake that was soooo good!  I'll see if I can find that recipe too.  It was quite a bit of work, but the pay off was great!

Enchiladas

1 lb. ground beef

Salsa, I never measure, maybe 1/2 cup or so

Tortillas shells

Cheddar cheese

1 can red enchilada sauce

Brown ground beef and drain fat.  Add salsa and stir to combine.  Spoon mixture into shells and roll up, place in a baking pan.  Repeat until all ground beef is used.  Pour can of enchilada sauce over stuffed shells and top with cheddar cheese.  Bake at 350 or about 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

If I want a Mexican flavor, I found that adding groudn cumin to any dish makes it Mexican.  Lots of garlic, too.

[Legs60]

I am so glad I read your post. I was sitting here trying to figure out how to post a receipe. I burnt my husbands teeth once and started blending his food. One day I blended some mac and cheese of course I had to add extra milk but it looked just like cheese dip. " Light bulb moment" I fried some hambeger meat added ro-tel and the mac and cheese  ( Walla ) Mexican Garbage. My bunch including my 79 yr. old Mom loves it. Very cheep. Hope you enjoy.
