Recipe Tips

  • Feel free to replace the ground beef with your chosen meat. For example, ground chicken or pork will work very nicely in this dish.
  • The long grain rice can be substituted with short-grain rice. You may need to adjust the fluids slightly to ensure the rice ends up cooked.
  • Pick your favorite brand of tomato soup as it will heavily influence the flavors of this dish.
  • Towards the end of cooking you may need to add more fluid if the dish is looking a bit dry and the rice is not cooked.
