Spanish Eggs and Rice


This was a recipe I made when I was near the end of a pay period.  It was very well received.  

3 cups uncooked rice
1 14.5 oz. can of diced toamtoes
1.5 tsp chicken boullion
2 tsp chili powder
3/4 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin

Filled the rice cooker for the rice (4 scoops so to line 4) then added everything else plus a dollop of olive oil.  Stirred and set to cook.

I also made scrambled eggs.  

one onion, diced
1 T butter
7 ounce can green chiles
two tomatoes, diced and chopped
6 eggs
1 c. shredded Jack cheese

Cook onion till tender in 1 T butter.  Then add green chiles.  Add diced tomatoes. Cook a bit then add the eggs.  Add about a cup of jack cheese just before eggs are throughly cooked.

Put rice in a bowl and make a cavity in the middle.  Fill it with eggs which also may cover the top of the rice.
