I have for you today, the most amazing, incredible, BEST Instant Pot Mexican Rice you’ll ever fix at home! Rice made conveniently in your Instant Pot!!
That’s right my friends! Restaurant style Mexican Rice made by you. So now you can eat as much as you want, whenever you want! You may not like me after this…
When I go out to eat, I love to eat Mexican rice. It’s always been one of my favorites!! In fact, if my particular dish doesn’t come with it, then I always order it as a side dish. Nachos just don’t taste right without rice, am I right??
Anyway, Mexican cuisine is a family favorite and I never ever could figure the rice out, no joke!

I don't have one of those pots. How do I make it the old-fashioned way?
4 cups of water is waaaay too much! It should be 2 cups.
