3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup Arborio rice
3 cups water or 3 cups broth made with
low-sodium broth powder 1 package

In a large skillet, cook onions in olive oil until caramelized (soft and lightly brown). Add rice and brown 2 to 3 minutes.
Add water (1 cup at a time), stirring in Mole Mix with first cup. (Keep heat so dish is at a low simmer.) Finish adding water and simmer until rice is al dente.
Remove from heat and stir in honey. Serve immediately.
