Mexican Rice
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup bacon drippings
1 pound can tomatoes, cut up with juice
1 cup water
1-1/2 cups uncooked rice*
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
Saute onion and green pepper in bacon drippings in a 3-quart saucepan until soft. Add tomatoes, water, rice, salt and chili powder. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 20 minutes. Serve garnished with chopped green pepper and fresh tomatoes, if desired.
Serves 6
Note: *I use Uncle Ben's converted rice. This goes well with enchiladas, tacos or just plain hamburgers.
