Cheesy Green Chile Beef & Rice is my go to on any busy night.  It comes together in minutes and is packed with flavor, but not spicy flavor so don’t let the name fool you.  Green chiles are very mild, ridiculously mild and I do add pepper jack cheese which gives a pop of heat but it is still mild and you can use any cheese you prefer, cheddar or colby would be perfect here as well.

Do I have to use ground beef?

Of course not! You can substitute ground turkey, ground chicken, diced chicken, shredded chicken or go meatless and try beans!

My kids won’t touch anything spicy, how spicy is this?

Again the green chiles are so super mild, any spice comes from the pepper jack cheese so feel free to use colby, cheddar or monterey jack.

Can I make this in the slow cooker?

Yes!! One of my favorite things is browning the beef and throwing it and the other ingredients into the slow cooker on low for 4 hours.  Then I just whip up the rice when we are ready to eat and dinner is done!

Ingredients used

  • Ground Beef –  I like to use lean ground beef but use what you prefer.
  • Cream of Chicken – You can use low fat cream of chicken if you like. 
  • Sour Cream –  This adds creaminess to the dish. 
  • Green Chiles –  These add a ton of flavor but not heat I promise!
  • Pepper Jack cheese –  This does add a kick of spice but you can substitute it for Monterey jack or cheddar. 
  • Rice – Use any kind of rice you like.
  • Green onions –  I love to top it with green onions, they add sooo much flavor!
