Pauline Woodward’s Texas Beef Skillet

This is easy and delicious- a crowd favorite- if I made it again I would go easier on the corn chips at the end.

1 lb. ground beef
1-16 oz can of tomatoes diced
1 cup quick cooking rice
1 cup water
3 T. chopped green peppers
½ t. salt
¾ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup crushed corn chips (Frito’s or Dorito’s)
¾ cup chopped onion
1- 15 ½ oz. can red kidney beans
1 ½ tsp. chile powder
½ tsp. garlic salt

In a skillet or big frying pan- cook ground beef and onion- drain off the fat.
Stir in the undrained tomatoes and undrained beans.
Add rice, water, green pepper, chile powder, salt, garlic salt,

Cook on med- heat then turn down and simmer covered 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Top with grated cheddar cheese- heat for 3 minutes, spinkle corn chips around edge of pan.

Serves 6-8

  1. I love this meal. It's super easy to make and delicious. I usually don't like ground beef (I inherited that trait from Bailee), but I love this one.
