Another of Mom’s recipes, it was a favorite of mine and much anticipated once the zucchini was ripe in the summer.

ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 c. tomatoes, chunked
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 uncooked instant rice
  • 1 medium zucchini, chunked
  • 1/4 lb. Velveeta, chunked
  • dash salt and pepper
  • 1/2 tsp basil
  • dash garlic powder

directions

Brown beef and onion; drain. Add all other ingredients, except cheese, to a large skillet. Simmer on the stove for about 1 hour. Add cheese last, and allow to melt before serving.

notes

Make sure the rice is cooked all the way. Keep adding water if necessary.
