Preparation

Step 1

In a skillet cook ground beef and onion until the beef is brown and onion is tender. Drain fat and add undrained tomatoes, undrained beans, uncooked rice, green pepper, garlic salt, 1/2 cup of water, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and let simmer for 20 minutes. Top with cheese and cook about 3 minutes until cheese melts. Place crushed Fritos on top. For more flavor you can add salsa before you add the cheese.
