Directions

Cook rice in one pan. In another pan, cook together beef, onion, and garlic.

When done, mix together. Add diced tomatoes. Heat about 1 cup of water to boiling and mix with bouillon cube and jalapeno juice until well-mixed. Add to rice. Add cumin, oregano, and chili powder. Mix well. If necessary, add a bit more water so that the mixture is just slightly "soupy". Cook over low heat until thick. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Each serving is about two cups. I enjoyed mine with some cheese on top.
