For a richer flavor, sauté the diced tomatoes with the onion before adding them to the rice mixture. Add a can of drained corn for a touch of sweetness and texture. Experiment with different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or pepper jack, to customize the flavor profile. Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for added freshness.
