Love this recipe. I make it quite a lot. Extras freeze well and are easy to warm up another night. So easy!

Made this for my family and everyone loved it. Instead of using minute rice, I used cooked basmati rice and omitted the water. Garnish with sour cream and green onions. Yum.

I made this without the vegetables and made it into a taco salad. My kids like eating this with some sour cream and nacho chips. It is good

I made this tonight and it was a hit! I used a package of taco seasoning instead of chili powder and added a can of black beans instead of green beans. Served it in a soft taco for my daughter. Huge hit. Would maybe use a bit less rice next time....

Needs a bit more flavour top with sour cream green onions and salsa for a bit more zip

This is surprisingly filling and is fantastic with tortilla chips when you half the rice ;-)
