Red Beef Special

a.k.a. Beef & Veggies over Rice

Ingredients:

1 lb. ground beef

Steam in the Bag Frozen Veggies (the mix is your choice)
2 boxes rice (any flavor, I prefer beef, Mexican or dirty rice)
1 large can of tomato sauce
¼ cup ketchup
2T sugar
2tsp. black pepper
2tsp. red pepper
Dash of salt

Instructions (totally easy!) 

   1. Using a skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Chop the beef until fine and make sure to drain ALL GREASE from the beef (cuts down in fat & heartburn!)

2.      2. While the beef is cooking, prepare the 2 boxes of rice in accordance with the directions. Cover and leave on low heat once cooked.

3.      3.  Leaving the drained beef in the skillet, mix in the can of tomato sauce, ketchup, sugar, red pepper, black pepper and salt; lower heat to a low medium & simmer until heated through.

4.      4. Steam the vegetables by following the directions on the package; once steamed add the veggies to the tomato sauce and beef mixture

5.      5. Cover and heat thoroughly on medium heat; once heated all the way through turn to low heat and stir every so often.

   6. Serve by scooping rice onto a plate or bowl and topping with tomato, beef and veggie mix. Enjoy!
