We found the original recipe needed some seasoning and could use a bit more tomato flavor. In our updated version of this recipe we changed the following.
- Use 1/2 c rice.
- Season the ground beef and onions with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Use 2 cans, or 1 family size can, of condensed tomato soup and only add enough water to thin it out to be able to pour (about 1/4 c).
- Add 1/4 t of salt to the tomato soup.
