Are you starting to feel that holiday pressure? Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away and there is already lots to do. AND you know the list will just keep growing as we get even closer!
So I am going to try to help you simplify. I thought you might like a dinner idea that’s super easy and packed with great flavor. My Southwestern Beef And Rice Skillet is busy mom and picky kid approved!
I have been making this recipe for years and often adjust based on what I have handy. Sometimes I add beans, other times I stuff it into peppers. The recipe I am sharing below is my base recipe, feel free to adjust based on your tastes. I typically serve it with tortillas or chips and there are never, ever any leftovers.
I choose Success Rice for this recipe as it helps me get dinner on the table in a flash. If you start the rice and the beef at the same time, you can have dinner on the table in about 15 minutes. That makes this recipe perfect for any night, even a busy weeknight!
You can use any variety of Success Rice that you love. I happened to have a box of Success Jasmine Rice in my pantry so that’s what I used. It love that fragrant, fluffy rice so I typically always have it on hand. It’s the quick and easy rice that’s perfect in all your favorite meals. It’s also naturally Gluten Free, Non-GMO Project Verified and free of MSG or preservatives.
