Spanish Rice Recipe – (vegan, gluten-free)

Average Rating: 4.5 | Rated By: 5 users

I discovered this Spanish rice recipe while I was travelling in Spain. Honestly, all I need is this Spanish rice and nothing else, it is that good! Rice is one of those gluten-free grains that you can flavour with just about anything, and make it extra flavourful!

In this Spanish rice dish I used fresh nutrient packed veggies such as bell peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic and red onions. Then I added spices such as cumin and chili pepper and plenty of fresh parsley. The best part is, by using fresh veggies you are eating a healthier more nutritious meal.
