Start by browning about 1 pound of ground beef. Drain away the fat.
Add 2 chopped peppers; whatever colour you like. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes.
On the side, cook up 1 cup of dry white rice. You could also use Minute Rice for this step (which is what my mom used to do), but I prefer the taste of the white rice from scratch. If you have tomato juice in the house, you can use the juice in place of some of the water to add extra flavour.
Stir it all up and cook until any excess liquid has been absorbed.
And that's it. How easy was that? You could sub in all kinds of things: ground chicken or turkey, green or yellow peppers, brown rice, different herbs. We had this with a side of braised broccoli.
This is where I'm partying:

I love the idea of ground beef in the Spanish rice! I think that's just what mine has been missing all these years!
Oh does this recipe bring back memories! It must have been on the back of a Campbell's soup can or the box of Minute Rice, because my mom used to make something similar for us when we were kids. For a family who ate meat and potatoes every night, we thought mom was being really fancy! She used a can of tomato soup with the canned tomatoes. I should make this tonight for my two meat-eating kids and see what they think!
very delicious :)
That is exactly the stuffing of my stuffed pepper recipe that I got from my aunt, and it's SO good! Sadly, I'm the only one in my house who likes peppers, so I hardly ever make it. :(
But if you want to serve it in a pepper, just clean, stuff and bake for another 30 minutes. It makes 4.
Aw, there's no such thing as a "proper recipe". They're all blank slates! :)
Looks delish!
É um prato apetitoso, saboroso e nutritivo! Amei a idéia!
