Now I am pretty picky when it comes to my mexican rice. This was actually good considering its weight watchers.

How To Make mexican rice ww

Step 1

Heat oil in skillet. Add rice until golden and toasted. Add onion and pepper and lightly sautee.

Step 2

In a blender put salt,garlic, 1/2 cup tomatoes (undrained) and broth. Puree until smooth.
Step 3

Slowly add liquid mixture to rice. You can drain the rest of the tomatoes and add to the rice if you'd like.
Step 4

Bring to a boil, cover and turn heat to low. Simmer until rice is tender, about 1 hour. Do not remove lid while rice is simmering! I usually check the rice package, it tells you how long to cook it for.
