SPANISH RICE WITH GROUND BEEF
Growing up, my mom made a version of Spanish rice with ground beef that was hearty enough that it stood on its own as a main dish. During a visit a few years ago, after missing her cooking desperately, I watched her prepare it and jotted down the recipe. (Don't worry, I checked with my mom and she's totally on board with sharing with you!) Serve on a bed of fresh spinach with a side of refried beans. Garnish with fresh diced tomatoes, green onions, cheese, avocado slices, and crushed chile flakes.

BEEFY SPANISH RICE
This recipe can be altered to fit any taste by adjusting how spicy and saucy you make it. On occasion, I like using ground turkey in place of the beef-or adding leftover spaghetti sauce instead of the tomato paste.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your Spanish rice. Look for ripe tomatoes, tender green bell peppers, and flavorful ground beef.
- Cook the rice properly: Rice is the foundation of this dish, so it's important to cook it properly. Be sure to rinse the rice before cooking to remove any excess starch. Then, cook the rice according to the package directions.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the ground beef, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the meat from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
- Season to taste: Be sure to season the Spanish rice to taste. This means adding salt, pepper, and other spices to your liking. You can also add a squeeze of lime juice or a dollop of sour cream to brighten up the flavors.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley, can add a nice pop of color and flavor to your Spanish rice. Sprinkle them on top of the rice before serving.
Conclusion:
Spanish rice with ground beef and eggs is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
