Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 ounce packet taco seasoning
- 2/3 cup water
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2 Tablespoon fresh cilantro finely chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups cooked white or brown rice

- 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped

Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up, until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
- Stir in the taco seasoning and 2/3 cup water. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the beef. Remove from heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lime juice, lime zest, cilantro, garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp salt to make the cilantro lime crema. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
- To assemble the taco bowls, divide the cooked rice among four bowls as the base.
- Top each bowl with the seasoned taco meat, red onion, avocado, corn, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, black beans, and shredded cheddar cheese.
- Drizzle the cilantro lime crema over the bowls and garnish with extra cilantro if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
