Yes this was very easy to make. But it was a little dry and I only used 1 3/4 cup of minute rice. I might try adding some tomato sauce next time to help with this. I also think it needs more of the taco seasoning. When I served this I put the chips on the plate then the meat miture and topped it with the cheese and other toppings. I will be making this again as the kids liked it but I will try those to adjustments. Thanks for sharing this quick recipe. Made for Zaar World Tour 2006

I agree with other reviewers..very good and easy. I did use 1 1/2 packages of taco seasoning and this was perfect. Also I used cooked rice. Thanks for a quick supper recipe.

I didn't use any beef in this dish as I wanted to make it as a side dish! I followede the rest of the recipe exactly and it was really good. I will try it with beef another time. This is a keeper.
