Easy Rice Cooker Spanish Rice is so simple and delicious to pair with so many meals! My husband grew up in Arizona and enjoyed Spanish rice at church potlucks and family gatherings, so he often has cravings for this dish. With the convenience of a rice cooker, this dish can be made in no time! The flavors of Spanish rice are bold, but not overpowering, and pair perfectly with most Mexican main dishes. It’s also mild enough that my whole family can enjoy, including the kiddos!
