Instructions
- Heat a skillet to medium heat and spray with cooking oil.
- Add the ground beef into the pan with ½ of the diced white onions and taco seasoning.
- Sauté until onions are translucent and ground beef is cooked.
- While the beef is cooking, wash and prepare the other ingredients. Finely chop: bell peppers, onion, cilantro, and crumble the cotija cheese.
- Cook the microwavable pouch of Spanish rice according to bag instructions.
- Once the beef and rice are cooked and the vegetables are prepared, it’s time to assemble this Healthy 7 Layer Salad Bowl. Similar to a 7 Layer Dip, just layer in all of the ingredients - whether in an aesthetically pleasing fashion OR toss them into a bowl (because that’s how we eat salad anyway).
- Drizzle salsa and queso on top. Toss and enjoy!
Notes
- If you're making this for meal prep do NOT add the refried beans, queso, or salsa. Keep them separate until time of serving. They’re MUCH better fresh!
- This salad bowl is plenty hearty to be served all on its own! I do like to have some chips or a warm tortilla on the side though to help scoop up all of the goodness that's in this recipe.
