Cilantro Lime Rice

I love the recipes you can find when you type random ingredients into a search engine.  This recipe is the result of one of those searches.  I had a couple of limes in my fruit bowl that were begging to be used and a bunch of cilantro that my Mom brought for me to use up because she was going away.  I was looking for inspiration for dinner so I thought I might as well try a search to see what would turn up.  I had seen this recipe before, most likely on Pinterest, and tonight was the night I was finally going to make it.

I love how simple it was to add a little extra flavour to a rice dish.  It turned the bland carb staple in to a lovely side dish.  I am sure I will be using this recipe lots in the future!
