Lentils With Ground Beef And Rice

If you add too much, it will be too thick.

Recipe Summary Lentils With Ground Beef And Rice

This is a recipe I learned from my grandma and mom and adapted to my tastes. I absolutely love it. I like it thick and creamy so before adding the ground beef make sure you like the consistency of the lentils and rice. If it's too soupy for your tastes, eliminate some of the water.
