Taco Rice
Submitted by BetterBudgeting.com Reader, Andrea A. 

This is a recipe that my family loves, I have 3 girls, all very picky eaters. I am always on the lookout for new and interesting recipes that I hope they will like. This is a recipe that I heard on a local radio station, some time ago from a call-in listener. I quickly wrote the recipe down and have since used it often. I think it is a "kid favorite."

Ingredients:

1 lb. ground hamburger meat
2 T. oil
2 c. chopped iceberg lettuce
1 c. diced roma tomatoes
2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1 c. diced yellow onion
1 pkg. Taco seasoning mix
4 c. cooked white rice
Sour cream for garnish
Salsa

Directions:

Place oil in 12-inch non-stick skillet, add hamburger meat. Cook until no longer pink inside, drain and add taco seasoning following package directions. Assemble plates with the cooked rice on the first layer, then a layer of seasoned taco meat, chopped lettuce, tomatoes, onions and cheese, and sour cream and salsa. The idea is to build your own taco without the fried tortilla. I like to make a "taco bar" and let my girls make their own plates, fun for them, easy on mom!! Enjoy!
