Spanish Rice

Any Mexican dish calls for Spanish rice and this fluffy rice perfect! I combined my moms recipe with my grandpas and also added my own together and this is the best rice!

Ingredients
3/4 C short grain white rice
1/2 Tbsp oil
1/4 yellow onion, diced
1 Tbsp caldo de tomato
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/2 can petite diced tomatoes
3/4 C hot water


In a pan over medium high heat, add the oil, onion and rice. Cook over heat, stirring constantly, until rice becomes slightly toasted. 
Add the caldo de tomato and garlic powder. Stir and add the tomatoes and hot water. 
Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Cover and lower heat to low.
Cook for 25 minutes. Remove lid, stir and serve.
