El. Pato or El Paso tomato sauce.
I think that El Paso has added sugar which makes sopa de arroz too sweet. I use Heinz or Hunts tomato sauce. All of the other national and store brands take away from the neutral but not boring simplicity of sopa de arroz.

Haply Cinco de Mayo a d Happy Mother’s Day.

In reply to Larry.

I’ve been making sopa de arroze for over fifty yrars.
This recipe is just like the one my family from central Mexico makes except we don’t use black pepper. My dad’s family from northern Mexico browns the rice SLIGHTLY befor continiing with the recipe. Using Heinz or hunts tomayo sauce keeps the sopa from tasting sweet.

Cilantro and thin lengthwise sliced fresh jalapenos have been added for parties by my now 27 and 30 year old sons ( who have been cooking gor over 15 years) for presentation. Their friends always ask them to bring sopa de arroz when the guys get together to watch a game. You bet I’ m proud that my sons are self sufficient!

[…] I wanted to make a nice Southwestern flavored salad with an avocado dressing. I found a recipe online for the dressing at Sumptuous Spoonfuls that looked wonderful. I adapted the recipe to suit my family and it turned out terrific. I liked the combination of ingredients on the salad and the dressing was a big hit! We all LOVED it and even enjoyed dipping the Buttermilk Southwestern Grilled Chicken in it. This chicken also paired nicely with the Mexican Rice. […]

I don’t have a rice cooker and I have never used one so I am not sure how it would turn out. Sorry!

Hubbs says I can’t make mex rice worth beans, now I’ve got ammo 🙂 looks fabulous. Have you tried this in a rice cooker? Think it might get toasted on bottom?

Kim,

I’ll be posting a Super Bowl round-up tomorrow but the salad will post on Monday. Send me an e-mail if you want me to send the recipe to you earlier.

Kasey,

I’ve never tried freezing rice so I am not sure how it would turn out. If you do it, please let me know how it works.

Thanks,
Pam

This looks delicious, Pam, as does the chicken you paired with it. I hope you post the salad tomorrow so I can make the entire meal this weekend!
