Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound lean ground beef (90 percent or leaner)
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup diced bell pepper or zucchini
  • 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste or sriracha, optional
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage or carrots
  • Greek yogurt or tahini for topping
  • Lime wedges and scallions for finish

Instructions

  1. Warm a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and break it up with a spoon. Cook until browned and no pink remains.
  2. Add onion and garlic. Stir until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. Mix in bell pepper or zucchini. Cook until just tender.
  4. Stir in tomato paste, soy sauce, chili paste, paprika, and cumin. Let it bubble for a minute to thicken. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
  5. Build bowls: rice or quinoa on the bottom, beef and veg on top, then finish with cabbage or carrots, a spoon of Greek yogurt or tahini, scallions, and a squeeze of lime.

Notes

For meal prep, store cooked beef with rice and veggies in airtight containers. Keep fresh toppings separate. Can be reheated in the microwave.
