1
lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
1

2
tablespoons grated gingerroot (about 3 inches)

Preparation
Cook rice in water as directed on package.
Meanwhile, in 12-inch skillet, cook beef, onion, garlic and gingerroot over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain if desired.
