This is a fun single skillet recipe that is basically a Taco bowl on steroids. I love the texture of the corn and scallions, and of course, I think it should be made with loads of avocado. I recommend a nice salsa on the side. We used real corn, but a can of corn would probably work just as well, if not better.

We ended up not adding lettuce instead we went with extra corn. You might want to add sour cream and salsa which is not pictured.

Taco rice is a taco bowl on steroids because you cook the rice with the meat which adds tons of flavor.

  10. 1 Avocado
  11. 2 Scallions
  12. 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Instructions

  1. Brown ground beef with garlic and onion
  2. Heat 2 Cups of water with beef bullion
  3. Do not drain meat unless you use beef with high-fat content.
  4. Add corn and stir
  5. Add taco seasoning and mix well

  7. Add rice and mix

Notes

I wouldn’t blame you if you added salt and pepper to the beef when you brown it. I also wouldn’t blame you if you added a green or red pepper with the onion and garlic. You might like a dab of sour cream on top. I like extra scallions for some additional crunch.
