Lynn's Notes:

This fly by the seat of your pants recipe even impressed me. I love to raid the fridge and use what veggies I have on hand, and this is what I did today.

Directions

In a non stick skillet place bell pepper slices, onion slices, sliced jalapeno, minced garlic and slice tomatoes with about a tablespoon of olive oil. Add smoked paprika, cumin, Mexican oregano, and a dash of salt if your a salt eater. Simmer for about 10 min. Add a c. dry instant rice and 1 c. of beef stock. Stir together well and simmer about 5-10 min. longer till rice is tender.

Meanwhile, thinly slice beef and place on flat cooking surface, I use an electric. griddle. Sprinkle with southwest rub, garlic gran., onion gran. and black pepper, mix around with tongs. Cook over med. high heat for about 10 min till done.

Serve beef over rice and veggies and top with grated cheese.

These are the TWO sodium free and the Pinto bean low sodium seasoning I have found.

Lynn~This looks divine! Like you, I rarely use a recipe, and I'm fine with that! Real cooks use a recipe as a guide, and add the amounts of each ingredient to their own liking. I use smoked paprika and mexican oregano in quite a few dishes. Love ya, girl! :)

Dana I thought of you when I was making this, other than the tiny bit of cheese on top, next to zero fat and sodium. The meat had no fat, I trimmed the fat around the outside and used only about 1 tablespoon of Olive oil in the veggies and on the meat. This was so good, I'm so excited I found the smoked paprika and mexican oregano. This happened in about 30 min. time. I was thinking Italian and remembered my new spices, so I ditched the mushrooms and went with the rice. Really flavor dish.
