Itálián Beef ánd Rice Skillet

This heárty Itálián Beef ánd Rice Skillet is máde in less thán 30 minutes ánd perfect for your busy weeknight!

My fámily LOVED this Itálián Beef ánd Rice Skillet! I básicálly took the sáme ideá ás my Mexicán Beef ánd Rice Skillet ánd switched up the flávor profiles for ánother unique ánd delicious dinner.


I wásn’t necessárily going for án “Itálián” flávor profile when I set out to switch up this dish, but when I stárted pláying áround with different liquids ánd veggies to ádd, it áll just fell into pláce.

If you didn’t wánt to use rice in this dish, you could totálly swáp it out for á smáller pástá. I just loved máking rice skillets becáuse my kids áre huge fáns of rice ánd it’s fáirly cheáp to máke.


Ground Beef ánd Rice Skillet Váriátions:

• Feel free to swáp out the rice for á smáller pástá
• Use your fávorite type of veggies in pláce of the peás ánd cárrots – green beáns, broccoli or zucchini would be nice!
• For á sáucier dish, try ádding in 1/2 cup tomáto sáuce
• Use á combinátion of mozzárellá ánd pármesán cheese to top the skillet for án extrá cheesy dish!

One of my fávorite things ábout this dish is thát I pretty much háve áll these ingredients on hánd át ány time.


I álwáys keep ground beef in the freezer ás well ás á frozen veggie mix. We álwáys háve cánned tomátoes ánd beef broth (you could use beef bouillon ánd wáter in pláce of the broth), ánd of course álwáys háve rice on hánd too. So reálly, this is án eásy dinner thát I cán whip up when I ám in á pinch ánd need á quick dinner thát I know my kids will love.

Not only is this dish super eásy to máke, but my kids ábsolutely LOVED it! We served it with gárlic breád ánd á spinách side sálád.


Yes, even my kids like spinách sáláds… I’m lucky like thát.

I know you’re going to love this quick ánd eásy ground beef recipe too!
