Gluten Free Cajun Dirty Rice

Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a medium pot, brown 1 pound ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain fat and discard.
  2. Over medium heat in 1 teaspoon oil, toast the Dirty Rice Cajun Seasoning Mix (optional).
  3. Add 2 ½ cups water to rice and beef mixture, stir well, and bring to a boil.
  4. Cover pot and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20 minutes, or until all water is absorbed.
  5. Remove from heat, and fluff rice with a fork. Let rice rest uncovered for 5 minutes.

Optional:

  • Add a diced onion while browning the meat.
  • Substitute ground turkey or other ground meat.
  • For a spicy alternative, use ground chorizo sausage.
  • Make it veggie-friendly by replacing ground beef with finely chopped mushrooms, cooked and diced eggplant, extra firm tofu, or your favorite plant-based protein.
