| 0.5 tsp | 2.5 ml | dry mustard |
| 2 tsp | 10 ml | chili powder |
| 2 tsp | 10 ml | kosher salt |
| 0.25 tsp | 1.3 ml | freshly ground black pepper |

Instructions
- In a skillet that has a tight fitting cover, heat olive oil over medium high.
- Add onion, peppers, garlic, ground beef, dry mustard, chili powder, salt and pepper. Sauté until ground beef is no longer pink, breaking up beef as you cook.
- Add rice and cook for two minutes letting rice absorb liquid.
- Add tomato paste and cook for one minute.
- Add canned tomatoes with juice, water and Worcestershire sauce.
- Stir, cover and simmer for 20 minutes covered. (Note: it can scorch; I prefer to cook it without the lid.)
- After 20 minutes, remove lid and fluff the mixture then serve. If the mixture is too wet, cook for another few minutes with lid off.
- If you are using the cheese, sprinkle on top for last few minutes of cooking time with lid on.
