Ingredients:

• 1 lb extra-lean ground beef
• 2 cans diced tomatoes
• 2 cans diced green chilies
• 1 1/2 cups Minute rice
• Homemade taco seasoning (see below) to suit your taste. I like mine spicy so I use about 4 tablespoons.
• 3 cups water.
• Homemade Taco Seasoning--
• 6 tsp chili powder
• 5 tsp paprika
• 4 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 3 tsp onion powder
• 2 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• Mix all ingredients together and store in air-tight container.

Method

Brown ground beef & drain fat. Add all remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Cover and cook for 7-8 minutes. Reduce heat to low and simmer until rice is tender.

Notes: The ground beef can be substituted with ground turkey or chicken. Cubed, cooked turkey or chicken could also be used.

Number of servings: 8
