Description

A delicious and easy-to-make dinner featuring seasoned ground beef, rice, and fresh toppings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1 packet taco or burrito seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup black beans
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1/4 cup corn kernels
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/4 red onion chopped
  • Fresh cilantro chopped
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup lettuce chopped
  • Avocado diced (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high, then add your ground beef along with a pinch of salt and your taco or burrito seasoning. Let it cook, stirring now and then, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
  2. To build your burrito bowls, start with a generous scoop of fluffy white rice. Pile on the seasoned beef, then layer up with black beans, corn, halved cherry tomatoes, shredded cheese, sliced red onion, and some crisp lettuce.
  3. Sprinkle over fresh cilantro and finish with a dollop of sour cream.
  4. If you’re feeling fancy, a few chunks of creamy avocado are always a good idea.

Notes

  • Adjust the seasoning based on personal preference.
  • Feel free to substitute the ground beef with ground turkey or a plant-based alternative for a lighter option.
  • Leftover beef can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
