Since I have gathered hundreds of recipes and ideas from this list, it seems like it is time I gave something back. Yesterday I saw a mention of Spanish Rice, and it reminded me of my "Best of". This recipe is made in a rice cooker so it is a dump-it-cook-it-eat-it recipe.
No fuss. If you don't use a rice cooker, just make it like you would cook regular rice.
If using rice cooker, dump all ingredients in, cover and press "on".
Stovetop method: In medium saucepan stir together all ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer covered about 30 minutes or until rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes.
Added info: Varieties of 16 ounce tomatoes like with green peppers etc. change and enhance flavor. I like large chunks of onion for texture and flavor. Use 2 tsp chili powder if you like it hotter.

Very good. Thanks for rice cooker recipe. I wanted more servings and doubled rice and water. Used the can of diced tomatoes I had, a drained can of gandules and a few olives. Yummm.

I liked the easy way of cooking it in a rice steamer, but thought big chunks of stewed tomatoes kind of ruined the recipe.
