My mother-in-law bought some of the new Knorr Rice Sides Menu Flavors for us and they were just sitting in my pantry for quite some time.  My friend and I usually take a trip to BJ’s every week or so just to look around and the other week, they were actually sampling the sides.  I saw a recipe card on the sample cart and decided to make it for dinner.  Now, I can’t have my husband vouch for this because he is following a low carb diet but I made this for myself and I enjoyed every bit of it!  It was easy, filling, and pretty good for you, I would guess.  Try it and let me know what you think!

Fajita Chili Con Carne

1 lb. ground beef or turkey

1 medium onion

1 pkg. Knorr Rice Sides-Steak Fajita

1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained

1 1/2 cups water

1 can (16oz) red kidney beans

Brown the ground beef with the onion in a 4 qt. pot.  Drain.  Stir in the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil over high heat.  Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered; stirring occasionally for about 7 minutes or until the rice is tender.  If you want, you can garnish it with sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, etc.  Although it is just as good when left plain.  Enjoy!

*Again, I picked up this recipe card from BJ’s.  It came from Unilever and they created the recipe, not me. The picture featured below also belongs to them.*
