Homemade Spanish Rice

So, I am a little sick of the pouched rice and have been on the hunt for a good homemade Spanish rice alternative. After a few failed attempts, (I love to tinker in the kitchen, so many ideas don’t really pan out!) I think I have a winner. This is super simple, healthy and freezes perfectly for future meals. I hope you enjoy it.
