SPANISH RICE WITH GROUND BEEF



Spanish Rice with Ground Beef image

Growing up, my mom made a version of Spanish rice with ground beef that was hearty enough that it stood on its own as a main dish. During a visit a few years ago, after missing her cooking desperately, I watched her prepare it and jotted down the recipe. (Don't worry, I checked with my mom and she's totally on board with sharing with you!) Serve on a bed of fresh spinach with a side of refried beans. Garnish with fresh diced tomatoes, green onions, cheese, avocado slices, and crushed chile flakes.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice for the best texture in your enchiladas. Day-old rice is less moist and will hold its shape better when rolled.
  • Cook the ground beef until it is browned and crumbly. This will help to develop the flavor of the beef and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Use a variety of cheeses in your enchiladas. This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Be careful not to overfill the enchiladas. If they are too full, they will be difficult to roll and may fall apart.
  • Bake the enchiladas until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will take about 20 minutes.
  • Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

Conclusion:
