I have been looking for the correct rice, but this is a close recipe for taco rice.

Japanese Taco Rice

2 cups white rice
1 tablespoon lite soy sauce
1 cup finely shredded lettuce
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
8 ounces sour cream
8 ounces salsa, thick and chunky
salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon onion salt
1 pound ground beef
1 large tomato, diced

Begin cooking rice, according to package directions. Brown hamburger. Add soy sauce, garlic and onion salt, salt and pepper to taste. Drain off grease. Add cooked rice to the beef, mixing well. Cook mixture about 5 minutes on low.

In separate bowls, layer beef/rice, cheese, lettuce, tomato, sour cream and salsa.

Tips: Make sure you get all the grease out. Make sure the rice is soft and sticky!
