Ingredients:

1 c Long Grain White Rice
1 ½ c Beef Broth
1 lb. Ground Beef
½ c Salsa
1 c Shredded Cheese
1 Small Onion, Diced
1 15 oz. Can of Corn, Drained
2 tbsp Taco Seasoning
8 oz. Tomato Sauce
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper, To Taste

Directions:

Place a large skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add the ground beef, then cook for a few minutes until crumbly and brown. Sprinkle salt and pepper to season. Remove any accumulated fat that surfaces.

Add the taco seasoning and garlic powder over the ground beef, then stir until well incorporated.

Add the salsa, corn, rice, and tomato sauce. Stir everything to combine.

Allow the mixture to boil, then cover the skillet with the lid. Turn the heat down to low and simmer everything for about 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked through.

Scatter the shredded cheese over the rice casserole, then cover it with the lid. Cook for 3 more minutes or until the cheese has melted completely.

Remove from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes at room temperature.

Serve and enjoy!

Notes:

I highly suggest using long-grain rice for this recipe.

Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
