Taco Rice

I was surprised to find that there is no recipe for this already on here. This was a staple "fast food" to eat after a night of fun in Okinawa. It is a great alternative to taco salad!

This was very good and a nice alternative to tacos (especially when you're out of tortillas). I think in the future I will blend the taco seasoning in a blender with some stewed tomatoes to make the meat a little "saucier". Otherwise, for our taste, the salsa is really necessary. I will make this again... thank you!
