Spring has finally sprung. Temperatures have climbed above 80 in the daytime but the mornings are still wonderfully cool, and the evenings mild and enjoyable. That means is still a great time to make warm meals over the camp fire to finish off your day. Today’s image is not mine, writing this last minute and didn’t have my own photo. The chili rice skillet still tastes great though!
Ingredients Chili Rice Skillet
Makes 8
- 1 pound ground beef

- 1 cup shredded Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
Preparation
In a large skillet, brown meat, drain. Add remaining ingredients except cheese; stir it all together. Bring to a rolling boil. Cover tightly. Simmer about 5 minutes or until desired consistency. The longer you cook it the less wet the ingredients will be. When it’s done sprinkle the cheese.
