1 lb Ground Beef or Ground Turkey
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 clove of garlic, pressed or 1 tsp garlic powder (I just shake a bunch on when I do it!!)
Brown together with salt and pepper to taste. Drain and add the following:
1 can diced tomatoes w/green chilies
1 can whole kernal sweet corn
1 can black beans (rinsed)
1 envelope Spanish rice mix (Rice-a-Roni or something like it)
1 1/2 cups water
Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until rice is tender.
Top with cheese and serve with steamed veggies or a salad.
Variations:
~ Put it in a tortilla and wrap it up for burritos! Or add fresh veggies and sour cream for a twist on tacos.
~ Top a pile of tortilla chips with mixture and cheese, bake at 350* for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted, then add sour cream, olives and jalepenos for Loaded Nachos for a snack or appetizer!!
