Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cooked rice white or brown
  • 1 can 15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn frozen or canned
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes fresh or canned
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Lime wedges for serving

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
  4. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the spices to blend.
  5. In serving bowls, layer the cooked rice, seasoned ground beef, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and cheddar cheese.
  6. Top each bowl with a dollop of sour cream, sliced avocado, and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
