For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or garlic powder to the ground beef while browning. Feel free to substitute other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms for the zucchini. If you prefer a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the skillet along with the Worcestershire sauce. For a richer flavor, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese in addition to or instead of the Cheddar. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions for added freshness and visual appeal.

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced zucchini and sauté until they begin to soften and develop a slight golden color. (5 minutes)

Return the browned ground beef to the skillet with the zucchini. Stir in the beef broth, diced tomatoes, beef flavored rice mix, rehydrated minced onion, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil. (3 minutes)

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 7 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid has been absorbed.
