Mexican Style Dirty Rice

This is one of those recipes that is technically a side dish, but is certainly hearty enough to be used as a main dish.

I did serve it as a side dish to the Tostados I made yesterday.

This recipe reminds me a lot of a dirty rice. Rice and meat equals dirty rice.

Of coarse, there are added vegetables to this rice too. The onion and bell pepper add a nice texture to the dish.

The tomato sauce makes the rice nice and thick.

I am not really sure what the mustard was for. You really didn’t taste it at all.

Overall this was a nice dish.
