  • 1 medium onion, diced Adds great flavor and crunch.
  • 1 packet taco seasoning Feel free to use homemade if preferred.

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with the diced onion. Break the meat apart as it cooks until it’s no longer pink.

  • Prepare bowls by layering the cooked rice, followed by the seasoned beef mixture, black beans, and corn. Top with shredded cheese, sour cream, and cilantro.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy customizing your bowls with any extra toppings you love!
