Cilantro Lime Rice
I know I am trying to catch up on blog entries for the last two months, but I must share a new recipe. I don't know about you all, but our family LOVES Mexican food. Given I think M&E like Don's cheese enchiladas better than mine, but I will forgive them for that! Lol I had extra cilantro in the fridge so I Googled cilantro lime rice and found this recipe from Martha Stewart. Don't be scared by the greenness! The girls are! I think it has replaced Spanish Rice in our house for awhile! Try it, you'll love it too!!!
