It didn't tell me whether or not to drain the tomatoes, so I did, and it turned out pretty dry. The reheats are even drier! Just needs a little tweaking I guess.

Great comfort food and easy to make! I added and 1/2 cup extra cheese and bacon rather than drippings. Makes great leftovers too.

3 stars for me, means pretty average. This dish is basic and good, but not great. If you need variety and something for a quick family meal, then give this a go. I added corn and shredded carrots for additional nutrition.

Was a fairly quick and easy supper. I used 15 oz. tomatoes and about 6 oz. of salsa. Also added some chili powder, dried cilantro, and about 1/2 cup of frozen corn. Yummy!

I originally found this recipe, under the name Spanish Rice, in an old Betty Crocker kids' cookbook that my grandma's sisters had given to her for a wedding gift (she couldn't cook well when she got married.) This is comfort food for me. I made this when I was a kid, minus the green pepper and the cheese. I misplaced the cookbook, and couldn't remember how to make it exactly, so I was tremendously excited to find it here. It's also good made with diced stewed tomatoes, if you like that taste. Thanks for the recipe!

This was ok - I thought it was kind of bland and too tomatoey - it kind of had a metallic taste to it. I didn't put in the green pepper because I don't like it. And I couldn't taste the bacon even though I put in about 8 slices. If I made it again I would skip the bacon, put in one can on Mexican tomatoes and maybe mix 1/2 c pepperjack cheese in with the cheddar to give it some zip. I took it to a potluck and a few people ate it so it worked out ok and filled our tummies.

My not picky 7 year old and myself were the only ones home for dinner so I decided to give this a try. Cut the recipe in half and subbed garlic salt for the salt. Also used a 14oz can of diced tomatoes. Just right for a kid's taste buds. Next time I'm going to try using leftover rice. Easy and yummy.

I didn't think this was anything special. It needed lots of spicing up, pretty bland otherwise.

Yummy, yummy, yummy. This was terrific. If you really like bacon, though, and don't want to add the bacon fat drippings, I'd add more pieces of bacon (crumbled) instead. I also added a bit of Worcestershire for flavour but then I love Worcestershire. Will definitely make again!

This was very easy and good. The leftovers remained tasty after days. And in a tortilla the leftovers were easy to prepare.

This recipe would be something that my grandma from the Ozarks would make. It was hearty, flavorful and easy to make. Bacon and its grease isn't an ingredient that I cook with often, while watching my family's fat intake, but it sure makes this combo especially yummy. I will make this again, especially if I'm having my inlaws over for dinner.
