Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds ground meat (you know its there lurking in the freezer)

1 1/2 cups regular rice (I had basmati on hand so that's what went in)

1 cup diced celery (don't tell me you don't have any)

1 cup diced onions or one 10 oz bag frozen diced

1 cup diced peppers or one 10 oz bag frozen diced

26 oz jar fav tomato sauce (i used ragu as it was handy. You did not hear me say that! LOL)

garlic powder (I was scrounging, otherwise I'd use fresh minced, honestly!:-)

1 Tablespoon dry marjoram

Franks hot sauce

salt and pepper to taste

about 2 cups water

Shredded cheese (I had some prepackaged for pizza so I grabbed that)

Directions

In a large skillet brown the burg (get the kids a drink)

add rice and toss around awhile (ask them a question or two)

Throw in the veg and give that some heat (nod as if you are listening)

add all else except the cheese (hum something Mrs. Doubtfire-ish)

bring to boil, cover, then down to a simmer for about 25 mts or until rice is soft (entertain kiddies with stories about your past)

add more water if it begins to get too sticky, should be stew like in consistency

serve hot off the stove in bowls with shredded cheese on top

Goes well with a french bread and a garden salad (just how many veggies can I cram into those darlings in one sitting? )

Can easily be stretched to acommodate more people or kids

Not gourmet but nutritious and yummy and I'm quite proud at my resourcefulness. Instant kitchen hero! LOL

If any of the kids do not groan with delight afterwards, NO DESSERT! LOL
