    this one was a rare miss. it was so tomatoey I couldn't eat it, and I love tomatoes. if I were to do it again I would use half as many tomatoes.

    @Anonymous, I'm going to edit this recipe to reduce the number of tomatoes. It does seem a little excessive, and I love tomatoes too!

    I wasn't too much of a fan of this recipe. It may be better with brown rice. I ended up putting korean red pepper paste in it and an over easy egg over the top and then I liked it better.

    I made this one today. I strongly recommend fresh grated cheese. (I used pepper jack) It was great!

    Making this tonight. I will use chicken or turkey stock instead of water for the rice and adding some black beans to it. My family loves kale so I think it will be a winner,

    Jan, I always use chicken stock when cooking rice. It adds a ton of flavor! Good tip.
