What's for Dinner Mondays (47/365)

a quickie dish tonight
beef and rice mish mash
not a favourite of mine
but the rest of the family thought it was ok
I guess it would be (as it was for us) a 
good, in a pinch, cheap quick
better than take out meal

1 pound extra lean ground beef
1 onion (chopped)

1 can (14oz) diced tomatoes(including liquid)
1 can (10.5 oz) beef broth
1 1/2 cup frozen mixed vegetables

2 cups minute rice
1/4 to 1/2 cup shredded cheese (I used a asiago,parmesan,mozzarella mix tonight but I think anything you had on hand would work)

BROWN ground beef with onion in LARGE SKILLET, drain

ADD tomatoes, beef broth and vegetables
STIR, bring to BOIL

ADD rice and cheese
STIR

REMOVE from heat
COVER
LET STAND for 5 minutes

STIR and SERVE.

really easy but like I said not something that will be a main staple for me. I am not a fan of minute rice but you can't beat the fact it took me 10 minutes from beginning to end.

** original recipe is from Kraft.
