Getting started....

Ok, let's see how well this goes. I told myself I would never get into blogging or tweeting!



Since graduating college I have started to enjoy cooking A LOT! I love finding new recipes to try. So as I find and try new recipes I will post on here for you guys to try and let you know which ones I would not recommend! Most of my recipes come from online websites with a little tweaking of my own.



**NEW FEATURE** At the bottom of each recipe there is a place where you can rate the recipe! Let me know if you just liked it, loved it or thought it was just ok. No hard feelings! Promise :-)





Enjoy!

Chipotle's Cilantro-Lime Rice

Steamed white rice tossed with freshly chopped cilantro, a dash of citrus juice and a little salt.

Ingredients:

1 teaspoon olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh cilantro
2/3 cup white basmati rice
2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Lime

Instructions:

In a 2-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil over low heat. Add rice and the juice from half of one fresh lime, stir for 1 minute. Add water and salt, bring to a full rolling boil. Once boiling, cover, turn down to simmer over low heat until rice is tender and the water is absorbed, about 25 minutes, but watch it mine finished much quicker than that. Add the chopped cilantro and the juice from the other half of the lime. Fluff rice with a fork.
