Directions
Puerto Rican Beans and Rice(Habichuelas Rosadas),A meatless Puerto Rican dinner, this is full of flavor!!! From Country Living magazine. Add meat, if you like.,This recipe is not right! You add equal parts rice with water..med grain. And you use fresh Sofrito,which is not even mentioned! This is not a legitimate Peurto Rican recipe but close…,Really tasty and filling. DD (toddler) likes it a lot. used butternut squash, turmeric instead of annatto seeds, unrefined extra virgin olive oil, orange bell pepper as that is what I had on hand, cayenne pepper powder to taste in place of the 1/2 chili pepper, extra garlic, a bit of extra cilantro leaves, used mostly drained canned pink beans, sea salt, to taste, plus the rest of the ingredients. I cooked my rice differently using white Basmati rice & sea salt. Made for Veggie Swap 38 ~ September ~
