This was the first recipe I ever made from this cookbook. The rice tasted more like "Spanish Rice" than other recipes I've tried. The recipe is definitely a keeper. I think it may have been the paprika that did the trick. I did not use bacon. Instead I just used some canola oil in which to fry the vegetables. I used fresh, chopped tomatoes (and all its juices) from my garden instead of canned tomatoes
