Hola friends!!! Here’s a little bit of nothing I made that just tastes so good I had to share. Plenty of leftovers to make a nice pot of this golden beauty. This is basic and can be made in any shape form or fashion. Add ons for days. I like peas in mine but today I went bare bones. I roasted the chicken and made the rice yesterday just so I could make this today. SherryRandall: The Leftover Chronicles
