Grab a big ol' skillet and cook up a pound of ground beef or turkey. Keep cookin' until you don't see any pink, then drain the excess fat.

Now, toss in that rice-vermicelli mix, add 2 tablespoons of margarine, 2 and a half cups of water, and your special seasonings. Give it a good stir and bring it all to a boil.

Once it's boiling, put a lid on it, lower the heat to a simmer, and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes. You'll know it's done when the rice is tender and ready to eat.
