From: SPARK_RECIPES

All the flavor of tacos, with far fewer dishes to wash! (And dinner
will be ready in just 20 minutes.)
Prep: 5 min
Cook: 15 min
Servings: 6

1 tsp canola oil
1 large white or yellow onion, chopped
1 lb extra lean ground beef or turkey
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1 pkg UNCLE BEN'S READY RICE Whole Grain Brown Rice
1 cup salsa
1 (10-oz pkg) fresh spinach
1/2 cup shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese

Tips - Top with plain Greek yogurt or chopped avocado, if desired.

Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then the
onion. Cook for three minutes, until the onions start to soften.

Add the meat and the spices and cook until the meat is no longer
pink, about 10 minutes. Use the back of a spoon to break up the
meat as it cooks.

Stir in the UNCLE BEN'S READY RICE Whole Grain Brown Rice and
salsa, then reduce heat to medium and place the spinach on top.
Cover and cook for two minutes, until the spinach has wilted.
Stir in the cheese and serve.
