Mexican Ground Beef and Rice image

This is an excellent dish that is chock full of flavor. It's easy to make, and will warm you up on a cold Winter's evening by the fire. Serve it with some warm flour or corn tortillas, and you have a complete meal. And guess what... it will even taste better the next day. FYI: You could always use pork or chicken in place...
