Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 pound ground chicken or lean ground turkey
  • 2 garlic pressed, cloves
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 15 ounces black beans one can, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup corn drained if canned, canned or frozen
  • 2 cups quinoa cooked
  • 1 1/2 cups plum tomatoes quartered
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 large avocado cubed
  • lime juice of 1
  • 1/2 cilantro chopped for garnish, bunch fresh
  • 4 green onions sliced

Instructions

  1. Heat the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the 1 pound ground chicken or turkey and cook until no longer pink, mincing the meat with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
  2. Stir in the 2 garlic cloves (minced) and 2 tablespoons taco seasoning and continue to cook until it starts to brown.
  3. Add the 15 ounces black beans and 1 cup canned or frozen corn and stir to combine, then allow the taco mixture to cool for a bit.
  4. Divide the 2 cups cooked quinoa among 4 meal prep bowls. Add the meat mixture, 1 1/2 cups plum tomatoes (chopped), and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  5. Top with 1 large avocado (cubed) and squeeze over fresh juice of 1 lime to prevent it from browning.
  6. Garnish with 1/2 bunch fresh cilantro and 4 green onions.

Notes

  • Either use ground chicken or turkey. Just make sure it is lean to cut down on the fat content.
  • Any oil of choice works
  • Canned corn and beans work
  • Serve with either brown rice, white rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
