Arroz verde is normally made with poblano peppers. My family likes spicy food so I have elevated the heat in this green rice by using Hatch chiles. If you are sensitive to heat, use poblano peppers.
Ingredients
- 2 greens chiles
- 1 , 14 ounce
- 0.5 cups chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup long grain rice
- 0.5 cups onion
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 0.13 teaspoons ground cumin
Instructions

1
Place Hatch chiles directly on the grates of a gas stove. Cook over medium heat, flipping with tongs occasionally, until blackened and charred, about 5 minutes. Place in a sealed plastic bag and allow to cool, 7 to 8 minutes.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat until it shimmers; add rice and onion. Cook and stir until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in chicken bouillon, salt, and cumin. Add chile mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer until rice is tender, 25 to 30 minutes.

Gluten-Free Butter Crackers
My husband just hasn't found a good cracker since going gluten free, and he loved his butter crackers. I adapted this recipe from several different ones I found online. Now, I have to keep my kids, who don't follow a gluten-free diet, from eating them so that Dad will have some for the next day! These are not light and flaky, but the taste is there. And now, my husband can welcome back peanut butter and crackers, cheese and crackers, or plain crackers for nomming on into his life. Also, you can likely add seasonings like garlic or sprinkle with Parmesan instead of salt to kick things up a notch.
