Hey my Love For Haitian Food foodies, welcome back to my website for another recipe. Rice with Mixed Vegetables is such a quick and delicious recipe that you can make for lunch or dinner. This rice is so good that I usually eat it by itself or I will pour some sauce (Sos) on it and that’s it, good to go (in my Elephant Man voice)

These are the ingredients for the rice, pretty basic. I’m using frozen mixed vegetables in this recipe but you can also use frozen lima beans or frozen green peas, they are essentially the same thing. In this recipe I am using jasmine rice but you can also use parboiled rice you will just have to adjust the amount of water you put in. Jasmine rice doesn’t go by the 2 cups liquid per 1 cup of rice rule, I usually reduce it by half a cup.

Notes

For a more yellow color add a packet of sazon or annatto powder. If you decide to add sazon reduce the amount of salt in the recipe. Also you can replace 1 or 2 cups of water with some chicken, beef or veggie broth, that will turn up the flavor even more. Always be mindful of the amount of salt being added to the recipe if you make any of these adjustments.
