As I mentioned, to make this dish, all you have to do is place all the ingredients in your rice cooker. Stir to combine the ingredients and turn the cooker to the white rice setting. Cook until the cooker switches to “keep warm” mode. Serve and enjoy!

Healthiest meal I've made in weeks, will continue to use this site for ideas, happy things are as easy as this.
Can't get any better than some Chile tofu and rice, I used brown beans instead of pinto, was good.
Happy with how this turned out, thanks so much for sharing!
Added some additional spices to mine to make it have a kick like some hot sauce and a bit of paprika spice on the top.
Love anything with tofu and this chille verde really hits the spot for me.
Thank you for putting tofu out there! Usually people have no idea what it is but hopefully this recipe brings it to light because it's good for you and ultra tasty.
My mom never had Tofu before so I made her this small little bowl and she was so upset there wasn't more,LOL! Totally got her hooked now.
Had this cold and it was really really good. Going to be sharing this with a few friends I know who love tofu.
Delicious, would totally recommend this light chile verde rice, it won't fill you for long but it's perfect of a small little lunch.
Great recipe, easy to make and fast too, would recommend for lazy chefs like myself :)
Was kinda plain so I ended up adding soy sauce after that it was tasty
Well done! Verified!
