Fiesta Rice Salad with Honey Lime Dressing

Did you know, you can make perfect rice in the Instant Pot? I am head over heels about my Instant Pot. I’m so happy with it I tossed my rice cooker – which was a big deal for me because I loved that rice cooker (sorry that sounds so sappy but it’s true). My Instant Pot even has a “rice” function so I can’t go wrong – perfect rice every time! There is one trick to perfect rice in the Instant Pot or IP, as I call it. You use equal amounts of liquid and rice. So if you are using 1 cup of dry rice, use 1 cup of liquid. It’s that easy!

Fiesta Rice Salad with Honey Lime Dressing

We love Tex Mex food at our house and I love when Tex Mex restaurants serve the entre with beans and rice. Recently  I planned a Tex Mex meal for our family and I really wanted to serve it “restaurant style” with rice and beans as side dishes. However, my family is not really big on Spanish rice I decided to mix it up a bit and I made a Fiesta Rice Salad with Honey Lime Dressing. This salad turned out so good it will now be on our Tex Mex menu from now on. And now that I have my Instant Pot, I can make it for a large crowd with no muss or fuss.
