Rice with Chorizo Recipe

Back before the holidays took over I was deep into sharing a full menu of authentic Mexican recipes from an old 1972 cookbook titled Mexican Cooking Made Easy. This Rice with Chorizo recipe came from the cookbook.

Mexican Rice with Chorizo recipe is perfect to serve along side your favorite Mexican recipes via flouronmyface.com

Some of the Mexican recipes I've been sharing start out with my Crock Pot Shredded Beef recipe. The Rice with Chorizo recipe is the perfect Mexican side dish to go along with those recipes.

It was perfect the day I had my Mexican food feast. I stuffed myself full of homemade Tamales, Chimichangas, refried black beans and this Rice with Chorizo recipe.

    I just came across this recipe and am going to try it. Thank you for that. I would love to explore your your website more, but you have an insane amount of ads that I'm having to close with every page I go to, so unfortunately I'll have to skip it.

      Sorry. I understand how busy ads can make a website look. I'm not sure if you know but running a website like this is very expensive. Those ads help pay for the many costs involved. I wouldn't be able to afford to continue sharing all of these delicious recipes with readers like you without them. I hope you can understand and consider be coming a reader. Have a great weekend!
