Spanish Rice, Box

“No joke, if you’re looking for the best Spanish Rice in a box, this is it. The seasoning is about as perfect as you could ask for, and as long as you follow the easy direction to a T, your rice will come out better than what most Mexican restaurants are capable of serving. I like to make a box of this, and use it in burritos. Good stuff!” – Dako T.
