Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup green pepper, diced
8 ounces frozen corn kernels
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried mustard
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 cup water
2/3 cup white rice
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef, chopped onion and diced green peppers.
  • Add chili powder, dried mustard, corn, tomatoes, tomato sauce and water, but don't add the rice quite yet! Bring this mixture to a boil and then add your rice. Reduce heat to low, cover and let it simmer for about 20 minutes. The rice should be cooked tender and it will have absorbed the water and sauce -- if not, recover and give it a few more minutes on low.
  • Lightly stir everything together and then sprinkle the shredded cheddar over the top.
