Y’all, I have been going through so many older cookbooks lately and discovering lots of yummy new-to-us recipes. You know those ones that are compilations of recipes submitted by group members—maybe a church group, moms club, work friends, kind of thing? There’s a reason those recipes were submitted—because they are usually family favorites. One thing I’ve noticed though is that in the older cookbooks, they’re not always the healthiest recipes. So I’ve enjoyed trying new recipes for my family and tweaking them to make them a bit healthier for my family.



This week I’m sharing a recipe for Spanish Rice and Beef Skillet. Recipes like these are perfect for busy weeknights because they can usually be made in 30 minutes or less and since everything is made in one pan, there is less cleanup. Those kind of recipes are always a double winner in my book! I love the flavors in this Spanish Rice Skillet—think of it as a Spanish fried rice without the stir-fried part! I could eat the whole pan myself and it makes good leftovers for lunches too!



Now on to the recipe:
