Sauté the Vegetables In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced green and red bell peppers along with the onion. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

Brown the Beef/Sausage Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned and crumbly, then stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 to 45 seconds until fragrant. Drain any excess grease from the skillet.

Season the Mixture Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat everything evenly.

Add Rice and Sauces Mix in the drained diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and uncooked instant rice. Add enough beef broth to match the liquid quantity recommended on your rice package instructions. Stir to combine.

Simmer Bring the skillet mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on your rice brand.

Finish and Serve Fluff the mixture with a fork and serve hot in bowls.
