Directions
This isn't gourmet, but it sure is good, and a hit with kids. I got it from the Girl Scouts of America, when I was a Brownie Troop Leader. Obviously, it will serve the troop. You can use it for a meal for your kids' sleepovers. You can take it to a pot-luck.
Brown ground beef in oil, until crumbly. Add next 5 ingredients and saute for 5 minutes. Mix in tomatoes, beans, and rice. Add water, as needed.
Cover and let simmer. Check occasionally to see if more water is needed.
Simmer approximately 30-45 minutes. Sprinkle olives and cheese on top.
Cover for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
