This is seriously the yummiest rice ever! If you like pico de gallo, you will LOVE this! It is so fresh and yummy. You will want to keep eating it, and it's pretty much ok, since it is so full of veggies!
Tex-Mex Confetti Rice
1 cup water
1/2 cup uncooked rice
1 small tomato, chopped
1 (15 oz.) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 oz.) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 jalapeno, chopped (optional and not on grocery list)
2 green onion, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro or (1 tbsp dried*)
1/4 cup lime juice
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Bring water to a boil in a saucepan and stir in rice. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Add remaining ingredients and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until heated through.
Enjoy!

This sounds so yummy. I didn't realize you can buy cilantro dried. You learn something new every day.
Kerry, how many servings is this recipe for? It sounds so good I want to make it tomorrow for dinner! I love your site! - Kim M.
I used fresh cilantro, not dried. And I would say it serves at least 4. With the two of us we definitely have leftovers!
