Spanish Rice

• 1 cup white rice
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup tomato sauce
• 1 ½ tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp cumin
• ½ tsp garlic salt
• ½ tsp tsp dried oregano

Ingredients

Add all ingredients into a medium saucepan and give it a stir. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.

Stir well, reduce heat to low, place lid on pot, and cook at a gentle simmer for 20 minutes (or whatever amount of time is directed on your bag of rice; see NOTES below).

If rice is not quite tender or liquid is not absorbed after 20 minutes, replace lid and cook for 2 - 4 minutes longer. Remove from heat, leave covered, and allow to rest for a few minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and serve.
