Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Ground Beef

In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add the ground beef and cook until browned, stirring occasionally.

2

Add Vegetables

Once the beef is browned, add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

3

Incorporate the Tomatoes

Stir in the canned diced tomatoes (with their juice), tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let simmer for about 10 minutes.

4

Combine with Rice

Add the cooked rice to the skillet and mix until the rice is well combined with the meat and vegetable mixture. Cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.

5

Serve

Remove from heat and serve in bowls. Top each serving with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and a sprinkle of chopped green onions.
