Instructions
Step 1: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving about 1 tbsp of bacon grease in the pan.
Step 2: Add the diced onion and cook until soft, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Step 3: Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain excess fat.
Step 4: Stir in the cooked rice, ketchup, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is well combined and heated through.
Step 5: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Cover the skillet and cook on low heat until the cheese is melted.
Step 6: Top with the crispy bacon and optional garnishes like parsley or pickles. Serve hot and enjoy!
Storage Information
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or microwave until hot. For best texture, avoid freezing as the rice may become mushy when thawed.
