Cilantro Lime Rice

You know that bomb rice that you get at Chipotle? Well, here's a recipe to get very similar, cilantro lime rice at home. This rice is perfect for a side or the base of a taco/southwestern bowl. It's super easy to make and a nice way to jazz up boring, plain rice. This can also be prepped ahead and sit in the fridge, then reheated when you need it! Remember, if you're making any of these recipes, be sure to snap a picture and tag me!
