This is a recipe I shared on the old AOL Tightwad boards back in the late 90s or early 2000s. My late friend Barbara Garrett always referred to me as Taco Rice Belinda, thanks to this recipe. :)
This is such a good recipe and so versatile. It’s like adding potatoes to my taco meat to stretch it out, rice will do the same thing. I even like to add corn to this dish. It’s good to eat by itself or to stuff into tortillas.
