Steps

1.      Prepare rice according to directions on the box.
2.      Brown ground beef and sausage in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add onions and peppers to the meat. Cook until the meat is done and the vegetables are still a little crunchy.

Suggestions

1.      Cook rice in beef stock to add more flavor.
2.      If you like a more tomatoey flavor, add in a couple of spoonfuls of salsa at the end.
3.      Serve with tortilla chips. Top with sour cream.
4.      Break up taco chips and sprinkle on top right before serving.
