Fiesta Lime Rice - Foodie Friday - Project Pinspiration #2

A couple of weeks ago my husband was complaining about reminding me that we were stuck in a dinner rut. We were basically recycling the same meals over and over and quite frankly there are only so many ways you can cook a beef roast before you want to stay as far away from beef roasts as possible!

Another couple of weeks before that we had Chipotle for lunch. Cue angels singing and rays of light shining down when I saw the pin pictured above pop up on my Project Pinspiration board!

Of course I did alter the recipe a smidge to suit our tastes and my husband's appetite, but it turned out wonderfully. I paired the rice with some steak and chicken cooked with a burrito seasoning packet from the grocery store and the huge burrito sized tortillas. It was a hit!

The next time I make this (note not an "if" but a "when"), I will probably add some diced red onion to the mix as well. Not that it really needs it, but the whole time I was munching away I kept thinking how good some red onion would be in there.

Oh! And as a testament to how delicious this really is, my very picky eater of a father loved it too!
