Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil $0.38
  • ½ onion $0.45, yellow, minced, about 1 cup
  • 2 cups white rice $0.44
  • 2 cups vegetable broth $0.18
  • 2 oz diced tomatoes with green chiles $1.92, cans

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet with the minced onion until glossy.
  2. Add the rice to the skillet. Toss to coat it and toast.
  3. Add the broth and canned diced tomatoes with juices.
  4. Simmer lightly covered for 20 minutes until all of the liquid is absorbed. Fluff up the rice with a fork and serve!

Notes

  • *We like to use Better Than Bouillon to keep costs down. The recommended ratio for broth using Better Than Bouillon is 1 tsp bouillon to 1 cup water. As the bouillon is already salty, I didn't add any extra salt to this recipe. If you aren't using bouillon, you may want to add 1 tsp of salt when you add your broth to the skillet.
