To Dorothy (7-13 newsletter): This is the recipe I use
for Spanish rice. My husband does not like whole tomatoes,
so I run the can of tomatoes through the blender to chop
them more.
Spanish Rice
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups canned tomatoes
2 teaspoons sugar
3 cups hot boiled rice
Salt and pepper to taste
Sauté onion and green pepper for about 5 minutes in butter.
Add tomatoes, sugar, rice, and salt/pepper. Bring to boiling
point and simmer gently about 5 more minutes. Serve hot.
NOTE: If you want a little zing, add a couple of drops of
Tabasco.
