Delicious Cilantro lime rice

When Mexican Night comes around I like to whip up a quick rice side dish (for myself of course) and Cilantro Lime Rice is one of my favorites because it is light and refreshing. The lemon juice makes it refreshing with a little bit of zing to it and the cilantro is amazing.
