LOVED THIS!!! Although I made several additions and did not follow the recipe, turned out GREAT. Cook the rice before mixing all ingred. I added the following all to taste: diced roma tomatos (instead of the can of diced tomatos with green chilis), FRESH cilantro, canned green chilis, ground cumin, jalepeno salt, salt & pepper, diced red & green bell peppers, corn, and a few tablespoons of chicken boullion just for moisture (don't forget the sour cream, I used light). Mix all ingred and bake at 350 for about 20 min or until warm/hot. I used organic brown rice and if I had had a can of black beans, probably would have added it as I think it would have been extra good!!

I made an alteration because I had a can of diced tomatoes with oregano, garlic and basil. My husband and I thought it was good. My children, however, did not care for it.

I think this would be even better with Pepperjack, Colby, and/or Monterey Jack cheese. In addition to a chicken bouillon cube, we also added a couple tsp of Mexican Adobo Bouillon granules for a great authentic flavor. Served with Southwest Chicken from this site and a spinach & tomato salad. Delicious!

Wasn't crazy about this rice. It reminded me of some type of gooey casserole that my mother made back in the day that I didn't want to eat. I guess it might be good if you just had a bit, but it was just too much to eat as a major side dish. Not impressive enough for guests--guess I should have known by the ingredients...

Once in a while, my kids love to have a "build your own burrito night" or soft taco night. I had been looking for a side dish for these evenings and this is it! It was so good and so easy! I followed the recipe exactly-no changes needed. Thanks so much for the recipe!

delicious and very very easy! a definite go-to side dish, and I like the other reviewer's suggestion to add chicken and make it a main dish!

Good! Instead of the can of tomatoes and chilies, I used about a cup of salsa. Oh, and instead of using the microwave, I did this: I put the water (I used around 2½ cups instead of 3) and bouillon in a pot on the stove, brought it to a boil, stirred in the rice and salsa, popped the lid on the pot, and removed it from the heat for around 8 minutes. I then stirred in the sour cream and all the cheese (I used a shredded Mexican blend). Quite good, similar to a salsa rice recipe I've used... I like the addition of so much cheese! Thanks for sharing, Sarah!

I used 3 cups of chicken stock instead of the buillion, just what I had handy. Next time I'm going to cook the rice on the stovetop- microwave didn't seem to make it as tender as I prefer. But that's the only change I'll make.

Very yummy! I made just one change, actually. Instead of three cups of water and chicken bouillon, I used three cups of chicken broth (about one and a half of the small cans of Swanson). Easy and tasty, the kids devoured it! If anyone has put off trying this because they're worried it's too spicy, it was very mild. If you like spicy, I'd add some chopped jalapeño. You would never guess it's so easy to make. I hope this gets some more reviews!

This recipe was great! I made it as directed and served it with the Swiss Enchiladas (best authentic enchiladas ever) from this site. Delicious! After serving up the rice, I found that adding a spoonful of salsa to it made it even more wonderful. I highly recommend this recipe for ease, convenience, and taste!

This was great. Used a bullion cube and used regular white rice, not instant. The addition of sour cream is what got me...I love what sour cream does to food. This went perfect with beef enchiladas. I also used Sargento's reduced fat mexican 4 cheese blend. Yum.

delicious! added black beans and sauteed onion. baked in the oven as well.

Very good and even better the second day. This makes a ton of rice, far too much for me and my man. But good for a crowd. We added jalapeños and some hot sauce cause we love it spicy!

So yummy! The picture on here looks kind of nasty, but the recipe really is excellent. I served it at a dinner party with chicken enchiladas and it was a HUGE hit!
