Instructions

In a large, deep walled skillet, cook onions and beef together over medium-high heat until beef is browned.
Add rice and taco seasoning, and cook an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly so the rice doesn't stick to the pan.
Add chicken broth, beans, tomatoes with chiles, and tomato sauce. Stir well to combine. Bring to a boil, cover with lid, and reduce heat to low.
Lightly simmer for 20 minutes, keeping the lid in place. Remove lid and fluff rice with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.
Top with cheese, then cover again for another 3-5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve.

Notes

Store the rice dinner in an airtight container in the fridge for 5 to 6 days. Reheat in the microwave for a few minutes at a time or on the stove top at medium high heat until warmed through.
To freeze, simply add the rice dinner to an air tight container for 4 to 6 months.
