Mexican Rice Casserole image

A great way to use a pound of ground beef and make a dinner that all will love. It's so easy too! If you cannot find Mexicorn by Green Giant, you can use a regular can of corn or frozen corn. To control the heat of the dish, you can choose mild, medium or hot salsa!

I followed the recipe exactly and my dish turned out nothing like the picture. It was very watery and the flavors were all wrong.

I wasn't too impressed with this dish. The rice was a little bland and the sauce was too runny.
