Taco Rice Skillet

This was always one of my favorite meals as a kid and it still is (though now it's also because it's so easy to make and not just because of how good it tastes). It's a one pan meal, which I love, and takes hardly any effort (especially if you pre-cooked your hamburger and froze it and have pre-cut onions in your freezer... one of my favorite ways to cook). Anytime I've made this meal for someone else they've always asked for the recipe and later on tell me that others have asked for the recipe from them. It really is a hit!

As always, the pictures aren't very good, but I'd rather have bad pictures than none at all (sorry).

Enjoy!
