Spanish Rice

Spanish rice is a savory side dish that features rice combined with tomatoes, onions, and a blend of spices. It is commonly served as an accompaniment to Mexican cuisine, but can also be enjoyed on its own as a flavorful and filling dish. Spanish rice is a good source of carbohydrates, providing energy for the body. It also contains fiber and protein, which can help promote feelings of fullness and aid in digestive health. However, depending on the preparation method and added ingredients, Spanish rice can also be high in sodium and calories. To make a healthier version, consider using low-sodium broth or adding in plenty of vegetables to bulk up the dish.
