Directions: |
Directions:Heat olive oil
Dump in recaito, sofrito, sazon, and adobo
Heat for a couple moments and than pour in water
Bring to a boil and than add the rice, stir
Dump in the beans and/ veggies to your liking
Give a good stir, lower to barely simmering, close and walk away....don’t touch it for 30 minutes.
After 20 minutes give it a stir and test for desired tenderness. You should have some delicious rice and beans now.
(This is a good meal that will last a week or so and reheat well. This is the 8 person serving. For parties I double everything and use the large jars of sofrito and recaito) |

Notes: This is Peurto Rican rice and beans....I learned how to make this when I worked at the Anchor House in Trenton, NJ from an older Puerto Rican woman by the name of Aliza. Definitely one of my favorite meals to make and is a crowd pleaser at parties. Enjoy!
