Cilantro Lime Rice

Uncle Ben’s long grain rice, cooked according to directions for 6 servings. (I just cook 2 cups of rice)

Grated lime peel

Juice of 1- 1 ½ limes

Sweeten with about 2T sugar (or a little more) ½ c water

Chop fresh cilantro (about ¼ of one bunch)

Cook rice according to directions for 6 servings. When about done add the lime juice, rind, sugar, water and cilantro. Steam for 10 mins longer to absorb liquid.

To assemble salad, layer: Mixed greens, chopped Cilantro, lime rice, Pork Barbacoa, Goya Black bean soup or plain black beans drained, Seven Sea Green Goddess Dressing. Top with Cheddar Cheese
