Ingredients
- 2 cups taco sauce
- ½ cup water
- 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes (undrained)
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1 cup uncooked long grain white rice
- 24 bite-sized frozen turkey meatballs about 340 grams, thawed
- 1 cup (4 oz) cheddar cheese shredded
- Optional toppings: sliced green onion diced avocado, sliced tomatoes, sliced olives
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Spray a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Stir taco sauce, water, tomatoes, taco seasoning and rice together in prepared dish. Add meatballs and ½ cup cheese; stir to combine.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with foil (make sure it’s very tightly sealed so that the moisture doesn’t escape – the rice needs the liquid to cook).
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the rice is tender. During the final 5 minutes of cooking, remove dish from oven, uncover, and sprinkle with remaining ½ cup of cheese. Place back in the oven (uncovered) for the final 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
- Garnish with desired toppings before serving.
