A Recipe and a Request

I have a request for some good recipes that are yummy, quick and don't use the oven. Any suggestions? Here is one that I like to make when I want to whip up something quick. My kids love rice and I love Mexican food.

Taco Rice Skillet
1 lb hamburger
1 medium onion chopped (or 1/3 cup onion flakes)
1 pkg taco seasoning
2 cups water
2 cups instant rice (we usually use brown)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Brown hamburger and onion in large skillet, add seasoning and water, bring to a boil. Stir in rice, sprinkle with cheese, cover and cook on low for 5 minutes.

Garnish with tomatoes, sour cream and tortilla chips.
