Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon ground allspice

  • 1/4 cup pine nuts
  • 1 squeeze lemon juice, or to taste

Instructions

  2. Stir water, rice, and beef bouillon with the beef; bring to a simmer and cook until the rice is soft and fluffy, about 20 minutes.
