- Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, minced garlic, ground beef, dry mustard chili powder, salt and black pepper. Cook until the ground beef is no longer pink while breaking it up into pieces. If there's any grease drain it off.
- Add the rice. Cook for two minutes to let it soak up all the flavors.
- Mix in the tomato paste. Cook for one minute.
