DIRTY RICE
1 LB Ground Beef
1 small package yellow rice
Green pepper and onion to taste
While browning beef in a large skillet, start the rice in a boiler, and cook only until beef is done. Drain the beef, add green pepper and onion for flavor. Add rice, and allow to cook until the water is gone.
Cook on medium heat and stir so rice won't stick to the bottom of the skillet.
