Notes
For best results, shred your own cheese. This will make the creamiest dish. Pre-shredded cheese often has additives that prevent it from becoming that luscious melted texture we want.
Have plain white rice leftover from another meal? This recipe is a great way to repurpose and jazz it up a bit.
This rice will hold up well in the fridge for up to five days. Reheat with an ice cube on top to keep it moist.
