Ingredients

  • Brown Rice - 2cup
  • Beef Stock - 28oz
  • Water - 0.5cup
  • Ground Beef - 3lb
  • Frozen Broccoli - 1.5cup
  • Carrots - 2cup
  • Sweet Potato - 2cup
  • Spinach - 2cup

  1. In a pot, bring 2 cups of beef stock and ½ cup water (adjust ratio as per rice package instructions) to a boil.
  2. Cover the pot, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 30 minutes. Avoid removing the lid.
  3. Check the rice for doneness. If cooked, turn off the heat, keep the lid on, and let it rest for a few minutes to steam. Fluff the rice with a fork.
