Recipe # 10 Lime Cilantro Rice

For some odd reason I am really excited to try this in like a burrito or something...and I don't even like Mexican food or stuff like that! Every time I think of burritos I think of my mom who used to take all the left overs in the fridge and put it in a burrito shell and called it "mommy surprise". I hate "mommy surprise". So lets hope this lime cilantro rice changes my feelings on burritos!
