Description

A fun and tasty meal that combines all your favorite taco flavors in a customizable bowl, perfect for busy weeknights and relaxed weekends.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (or ground turkey for a leaner option)
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade mix)
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
  • 1 cup black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1 avocado (diced)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tomato (diced)
  • sour cream (to taste)
  • salsa (to taste)
  • cilantro (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  2. Sprinkle in the taco seasoning and pour in the water. Stir well and simmer for 5-10 minutes until sauce thickens.
  3. Create a base in serving bowls with cooked rice, black beans, and corn.
  4. Spoon the seasoned meat generously over the rice, then add fresh lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado, and shredded cheese.
  5. Add a dollop of sour cream and salsa to each bowl. Garnish with cilantro.

Notes

Feel free to mix up the protein, such as using ground chicken or plant-based alternatives. Adjust spice levels to taste!
