Pepper Steak (freezer meal)

My mom used to make this and it was one of my favorites! Now I make it and surprisingly the kids love it too! But only when I chop the veggies very small. LOL

1# lean hamburger
3 green bell peppers
1-2 onions
4 packets brown gravy mix (or 4 cans)
1 large tsp of minced garlic
pink salt and pepper to taste
Italian seasoning to taste

4 c minute rice
4 c water

1. Bring 4 c water to boil. Remove from heat and stir in rice. Cover with lid. 
2. Chop veggies. Brown hamburger and veggies in large pan. Add garlic and seasonings. Cook until meat is no longer pink and veggies are almost soft.
3. In measuring cup, add 4 cups water. Add 4 packets of gravy, whisk to blend. (add more gravy if you like it really runny like I do). Add to meat. Stir.
4. Cook on low until gravy is thick and veggies are soft.
5. Serve over cooked rice.

(Make double or more and put meat mixture into aluminum container, seal and freeze. Thaw and heat and then serve over rice.)
