Rehydration:

Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium to medium-high heat.

Pour the contents of the jar into the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring to coat the ingredients in the oil.

Add 4 to 5 cups of water and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

• If there is excess water after cooking, strain it out.
• If the water is fully absorbed before 5 minutes, add a little more as needed.

Remove the saucepan from heat, cover, and let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the ingredients to fully rehydrate.

Notes:

Serve in a bowl adding toppings to taste. Suggested toppings: Cheese, Diced Tomatoes, Diced Green Onions, Sour Cream, Guacamole.
