[Cooking for Kids](http://kidscooking.about.com/ "Cooking for Kids") posted a quick and easy [Mexican Rice](http://kidscooking.about.com/od/sidedishes/r/Mexican_rice.htm "Mexican Rice") recipe based on the Glorious One-Pot Meal cooking technique.

Food writer [Stephanie Gallagher](http://kidscooking.about.com/mbiopage.htm "Stephanie Gallagher") took the basic concept of GOPM — using a cast iron Dutch oven inside an oven at 450F — and gave it a few tweaks such as stirring the ingredients and removing the lid to brown the cheese at the end. The result is a fun, kid-friendly meal or side dish that you can whip together in no time.

Thanks, Stephanie, for sharing a great recipe! I’m always excited to hear when people understand the [Glorious One-Pot Meal method](http://www.gloriouspotmeal.com/about/gpm.htm "One pot meal recipes") so well that they venture into their own creative recipes. 🙂
