Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
3 cups instant rice
1 medium onions, chopped finely
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1/2 cup water
1 bay leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
Brown ground beef and onion together in a large skillet. Drain off all grease when meat is done.
Add chili powder, salt, pepper, oregano, water, tomato sauce and bay leaf. Simmer for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
When sauce starts to boil, stir in uncooked instant rice. Cover with tight fitting lid and remove from heat. Let set for about 15 minutes. Uncover and stir, removing bay leaf.
Sprinkle cheese over the top and return lid for another 3-5 minutes just long enough to let cheese melt. Serve directly from the stove-top. Serves 6.
