Instructions

1
|
Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
2
|
Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
3
|
While the rice is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and stir in the ground beef. Cook and stir until the beef is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Stir in the condensed tomato soup and chili powder; cook until heated through.
4
|
Spread 1/3 of the rice into the bottom of the prepared baking dish and cover with 1/3 of the ground beef mixture. Place 2 slices of processed cheese over the meat, then cover with 2 more layers of rice and meat. Arrange the remaining 6 slices of cheese over the top.
5
|
Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole has heated through and the cheese is bubbly and browned, about 20 minutes.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Tomato Soup Hack 🥫
    Dilute the condensed tomato soup with a splash of beef broth instead of water to intensify the umami flavor and add depth to the dish.
  • Cheese Melting Magic 🧀
    Cut the Velveeta into small, uniform cubes and add gradually, stirring constantly to achieve a smooth, creamy cheese integration without clumping.
  • Spice Layer Technique 🌶️
    Toast the chili powder in the pan with the beef for 30 seconds before adding other ingredients to unlock its full aromatic potential and deepen the flavor profile.
  • Rice Texture Trick 🍚
    Rinse the white rice thoroughly before cooking to remove excess starch, ensuring each grain remains separate and fluffy when mixed with the beef and sauce.
  • One-Pot Optimization 🥘
    Use a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan to achieve even heat distribution and develop a delicious browned crust on the ground beef before adding other ingredients.
