• Brown ground beef on medium setting, and poke it while cooking to break up the meat. When it's turned color but not very brown, add rice and let it cook until it's opaque or golden. Watch carefully and stir occasionally.
• In about ten minutes, pour in the diced tomatoes. The liquid will be enough for the dish but if you think you need more don't hesitate to add a little water. Add a thin layer of salsa on top and cover with lid. Turn down heat to simmer or low.
• Now shred your cheese and get any other additions you want to add. Look at your pan and see if the rice has fluffed up. It should take more than twenty minutes.
• Add the can of chili and the additions and stir. Recover for just long enough to heat chili through, about ten minutes, and then add cheese and handful of corn chips. Cover and turn off burner.
• Uncover in 10 minutes if you want crisper chips. Serve with a salad or vegetable and this is a meal!
