Arroz con Pollo - Yellow Rice and Chicken

Arroz con Pollo - Yellow Rice and Chicken by Salad Foodie

Spanish, Cuban, South American - a traditional and popular ethnic dish, this ranks among my all time favorites and is comfort food at its best! Most often accompanied by black beans (see link) and green peas. Rice takes on a yellow cast from that most expensive of all herbs - saffron. My mom-in-law used a flavoring packet called Vigo…

Tilapia with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle Rice

Tilapia with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle Rice by Salad Foodie

Chicken with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle Rice by Salad Foodie

Using prepared jars of red roasted peppers and chipotle salsa cuts down on the preparation, but certainly not the taste of this…
