i had to smile when i saw this recipe! my little two year old won't eat anything. but, i discovered that he would eat Pineapple Rice - i have really been calling it that. of course, my version was hot rice with pineapple and pineapple juice on top. so, i am excited to try the grown up version with cilantro!
