Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked white rice
Taco Meat
- 1-2 Tablespoons canola oil
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 Tablespoon onion powder
- 1 Tablespoon chili powder
- ½ Tablespoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 10 oz can tomatoes with chilies undrained
- 1 squeeze of fresh lime juice
Toppings
- ½ cup salsa
- 12 oz can corn drained
- 15 oz can black beans drained
Instructions
- Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until it is browned and cooked through, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
- Mix in the onion powder, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, and salt to the skillet. Stir thoroughly to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the spices to blend with the meat.
- Add the can of tomatoes with chilies (undrained) to the skillet and stir well. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have melded together. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and stir to combine.
- While the taco meat is simmering, prepare the toppings. Drain the can of corn and rinse the black beans. Set aside.
- To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked white rice among 4 bowls. Top each bowl with an equal portion of the turkey taco meat. Add corn and black beans as well.
- Store cold ingredient toppings, such as salsa and sour cream, in separate containers. Pack a lime wedge in a separate container.
- When ready to serve, warm the ground taco bowls in the microwave until heated. Squeeze a little lime over the bowl. Top with salsa and other toppings.
Notes
- If packing these bowls for lunch, remember to store ingredients like salsa, guacamole, and sour cream separately.
