    Why we ❤️ it

    I am a big, huge fan of reusing leftovers. And this is why I think this Arroz Amarillo recipe (Rice with Carrot and Onion) is so brilliant.

    At home, we "recycle" almost all the leftovers. This Yellow Rice with Carrots and Onions dish is perfect for that purpose.

    About this recipe

    "Arroz Amarillo" (yellow rice) is not really any particular dish in our country. The name is given to any dish where rice has a prominent yellow color, and there are very many recipes for yellow rice out there. What sets this rice with carrot and onion recipe apart is that this one uses leftover arroz blanco (white rice), and it's super quick to make.

    In one of the pictures you see I serve this with another of our super-quick recipes: spicy beef with pepper and orange. Try that combination.

    Buen provecho!
