This is a VERY GOOD recipe!!! I changed a few things though. I used 2 1/2 cups of V-8 juice to 1 cup rice and 1/2# ground beef. I added 1 can of stewed tomatoes with the juice (which replaced the tomato sauce) that I cut up and chili powder to taste. I also had to cook it longer than mentioned. This is a KEEPER!!! Thank you for the recipe =0)

Very good. I added a cup of v-8 juice(water or broth would have been fine) to help with the rice and seasonings to give it a spanish flavor(cumin, chili powder, cayanne, garlic) after all that it was quite good.

This is a great quick & easy meal I will keep making on days I have to work. Excellent way to use ground beef, corn and whatever else is in the house. I added canned diced tomatoes and only half the ketchup with great results.

Thanks Donna- both myself and my fiance loved having this as a change from our usual boring beef dishes. These are my variations: I used 1 1/2 cups rice, 2 1/2 cups water, 1/2 pound hamburger, 1 whole large onion, 1 cup salsa, 1 can diced tomato, 1 can tomato paste (in place of the tomato sauce), 1 Tablespoon crushed red peppers, some dried chili peppers and no salt. YUM! Even better the next day!

Really easy to make... but although I used an extra cup of water, the rice was still pretty undercooked... so I added a little bit more... So for every ONE cup of rice, you should definitely put in 2 - 2.5 cups of water. I also added some mushrooms, 2 large jalapeno peppers for a kick, and a few dashes of tobasco sauce. And instead of cooking it for 30 minutes, I let it simmer for about 45 minutes and let the sauce thicken by putting it aside, off the stove, for about another 5-10 minutes.

This is the best recipe I've found on this website or anywhere else. I made the recipe just as it was written, and my family loved it. The only thing they requested that I do different next time was add more rice. It was actually more meat than rice, so they had a point. I multiplied the rice by 1.5 the next time I made it, and they liked it better. I liked it both ways.

My husband loved it - I thought it was good. However, the rice seemed a bit undercooked to me, so I recommend adding more water. It also has a more tomato-y than spicy taste. Keep this in mind and adjust accordingly.

This was good. I made half a recipe, left the water out and just used a can of tomato sauce. I also added some garlic, sliced black olives and cheese. My 17 month old ate it up. I will definately make again some night when I didn't plan dinner out.

I must say, I love this recipe! I would recommend cooking the rice beforehand, but otherwise, I really enjoyed this meal. I actually try to avoid eating meat -- I came across this recipe on a search for things to do with canned corn of all things! -- so I substituted mushrooms for the meat and didnt need to cook it as long (the rice was precooked). i really just enjoy this meal. I even eat it cold! as a poor college student who's always on the run, i enjoy the fact that i can stuff it a tupperware thing and bring it with me for lunch or eat it cold as a midnight snack. Its very satisfying, even in my veggie version. ;)

Quick and easy with minimal mess. My 9 year old didn't like it, but no reason why. It was very good. I didn't use catsup, my husband hates it, instead I used some salsa. I also added 3/4 cup more water, after reading other reviews, turned out perfect. also added fresh garlic, cumin, chili powder, 1 cup shredded Monteray Jack cheese, and 1/2 cup slices olives. I will make this again for a quick dinner.

Yummy rice, Donna! I left out water, tomato sauce and ketchup, added 2- 14.5 ounce cans of mexican style stewed tomatoes. Excellent main dish material with green salad and garlic bread. Thanks.

I liked the flavor of this, but my rice did not cook thoroughly. Next time I will cook the rice seperately or add more water than called for.

Very good rice! I used less ketchup (only 1/4c), used a whole can of corn and sprinkled a little cheese on top. Worked well both plain and in flour tortillas! Also, very easy to make! I will make this again!

YUMMERS!!!! I followed one of the other reviews and got everything thrown together and then stuffed it in my crock pot. I added some mushrooms because my hubby and I are mushroom junkies, and it turned out very yummy!! not too sweet, but just right. I added some Tony Chacherie's spice powder to it and gave it a kick. I highly recommend this recipe. Thank you Donna!!

My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe - great for a cold day! I modified it slightly by using red peppers instead of green, and added a 1/2 can of chili style beans to add some spice. Try using instant rice (Uncle Ben's works well), I actually used slightly less water than recommended and the dish was really moist and the rice came out perfect.
