1 pound ground beef
1 cup rice (white)
1 small onion, chopped (we prefer onion powder, several shakes)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoon pepper
2 cups tomato juice
1 1/2 cups hot water
2 cup grated cheese (cheddar)
Brown ground beef with rice and onion, stirring until no longer pink. Add remaining ingredients (except cheese) with 1½ cups boiling water. Bake covered with foil, not glass lid, at 350˚ for 60-90min, or depending on when the rice is done. Top with cheese to serve.
