In a dutch oven prepare both boxes of rice a roni to box directions.
When rice mixture comes to a boil, add hamburger with onions and bell pepper to rice, add in cans of corn and cajun seasoning. Bring mixture to a boil and cover. Lower heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir often to prevent rice from sticking. When rice is done, add cheese, stir and serve!
I always add more hot sauce to my plate of food, but I love the twang of hot sauce.
