About This Recipe

Highly customizable taco bowls with tons of veggies and spicy ground beef.

Ingredients

  • 12 oz bag Frozen Cauliflower Rice
  • 15 oz can Black Beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 15 oz can Whole Kernel Corn (drained and rinsed)
  • 2 medium Bell Peppers (I used a red and green)
  • 1-2 Jalapeño Peppers (optional)
  • 1/2-1 Tbsp Chili Powder ((to spice preference))
  • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil (optional)
  • 1 lb Ground Beef (I used 96/4 from HEB)
  • 1 medium (200g Yellow Onion, diced)
  • 5 cloves 25g Peeled Garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Cumin
  • 1/4-1 tsp Crushed or Ground Chipotle Pepper (or chili powder (to spice preference))
  • 1/2 C 120g Enchilada Sauce , or salsa
  • 4 oz can Diced Green Chiles

Instructions

  1. Microwave the cauliflower rice for 4-5 minutes while you prep the bell pepper, jalapeño, onion, garlic, black beans, and corn.
  2. When all your vegetables are prepped, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower rice, beans, corn, and peppers to the skillet. Briefly stir and then leave untouched for about 4-5 minutes to develop a bit of char on the bottom. Add the chili powder after 5 minutes and stir everything together. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes or so.
  3. Add the beef, onion, and garlic to a separate large skillet over medium-high heat and break the beef apart. Cook until no pink remains before reducing the heat to medium-low, adding the dry spices, enchilada sauce, and diced chiles. Simmer for about 5 minutes to let all the flavors get acquainted.
  4. To make the 4 meal prep bowls, add 1 cup or 200 grams of each mixture to a bowl or container. Squeeze a bit of fresh lime juice, garnish with cilantro, and add any other toppings you'd like when serving.
