Nassau Peas And Rice

    So good! This was easy to make and was wonderful with my Bahamian dinner! It kind of reminded me of Mexican rice, except for the addition of the pigeon peas, and the thyme gave it a great punch of flavor. I did find that I had to add more water, because it dried out before the rice was cooked. But with that simple fix, the rice turned out wonderful! Thanks for posting! Made for CQ3, team Pi Rho Maniacs.
