1/4 c. onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp. butter
1 can (8 oz.) tomato sauce
1/4 c. water
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. chili powder
Dash of pepper
2/3 c. Minute Rice
1/2 lb. ground chuck
Biscuit dough for 12 biscuits

In saucepan, saute gently in butter over low heat until transparent. Add tomato sauce, water, salt, pepper and chili powder. Bring to full boil. Add packaged pre-cooked rice. Remove from heat, cover and let stand 5 minutes. Add meat and mix thoroughly.

Roll biscuit dough into rectangle 9 x 12 inches. Spread with the meat mixture and roll up as for jelly roll. Cut into 1-inch slices. Place slices cut side down on a greased baking sheet. Bake in hot oven (450 degrees) for about 15 minutes or until nicely browned. Serve with tomato sauce, cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery soup, or cheese sauce if desired. Makes 12 pinwheels or 6 servings.
