Arroz Rojo With Beef Recipe

My kids love the pre-packaged "helper" meals, but I'm not crazy about the cost or the mystery ingredients. This recipe from Swanson is a homemade version of those. I've submitted the recipe as I received it, but we found it pretty bland - so we do add salt, pepper and crushed red pepper, along with fresh chopped garlic instead of the garlic powder.

  • 3/4 lb lean ground beef

  • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

  • shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
  • sour cream (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Cook the beef, onion and pepper in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until the beef is well browned, stirring often to separate the meat. Pour off any fat.
