beef recipe

Baby it’s cold outside… how does a hot beef and rice empanada sound?

Yeah, now we’re talking. Hot, steamy, ooey, gooey, cheesy ground beef with flaky rice as the comfort starch centerpiece… wait… make that rice and puff pastry as the blended comfort centerpiece all rolled up as a delicious rice empanada. Those two were meant to be.

If you shy away from empanadas because they sound complicated are deep fried, stick around. This recipe is neither one of those things. I created this stunningly delicious beef and rice empanada recipe for Riceland Foods and they posted it on their blog (sponsored post) this past week. I also introduced the recipe by sharing my first encounter with an empanada. Where was yours? Remember the old gourmet grocery store in Rogers called The Market? Yep, that’s where Mr. Empanada and I first met.

Seriously, you know you want a bit of this. Make a zillion of them and freeze them for later… after you thaw out from that #whole30 plan you’re on.

Oh, yes. This is a dish that is worth hibernating for.

Enjoy the warmth.

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

      haha! It’s al good! I actually almost made this with chicken! For a quick and easy, use pre-cooked shredded chicken (aka leftovers).

        Oh, how funny! I often use leftovers for that pre-cooked, shredded chicken stuff. 😀

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
