Quick Beef and Rice

1 pound ground beef or turkey
2 cups rice
1 package onion soup mix
4 cups water
1 15 oz. can cream of mushroom soup

Brown the ground meat and drain if necessary. Add soup mix, rice, soup, and water and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes, till rice is done.

Options: You can leave out the cream of soup if you don't have it or just make a simple white sauce. If you don't have any onion soup mix, sauté an onion and add 2 tsp. beef bouillon instead.
