Kittencal's Mexi Ground Beef And Rice

---

This is a delicious tomato based rice dish, spicy pork sausage meat may be replaced for the ground beef which is what i prefer to use, make this as spicy as you like by adjusting the chili flakes, the olives may be omitted i strongly suggest to add them in you could substitute 3/4 cup frozen peas, this recipe was developed using converted rice i can't promise the same results using another kind of rice
