Ingredients
1 (8.8 oz) bag Carolina® Ready to Serve Cilantro Lime Rice
1/3 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
1/3 cup cups frozen corn, thawed
2 tbs oil
1 small onion, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
10 oz ground beef
1/4 tsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tbs lime juice + 2 wedges
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded, divided
1/4 cup sour cream, divided
2 tbs tomato salsa, divided
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, divided
1 cup tortilla chips, divided
Directions

1. Tex Mex Rice: In a microwave safe bowl, combine rice, black beans, corn and salt. Heat rice according to package directions.

 

2. Taco Beef: Meanwhile, in large skillet set over medium heat, add oil. Cook onions and garlic for 5 to 6 mins or until softened. Add ground beef, chili powder, cumin, oregano, paprika, sugar, lime juice, salt and black pepper for 10 to 12 mins or until meat is browned.

 

3. Divide rice among 2 bowls. Top evenly with taco beef, 2 tbsp cheese, 2 tbsp sour cream and 1 tbsp salsa. Garnish a lime wedge, 2 tbsp fresh cilantro and 1/2 cup tortilla chips.

 

Recipe Tip: For homemade tortilla strips. Thinly sliced corn tortillas into strips. Shallow fry in vegetable oil set over medium heat until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towel and sprinkle with salt.

 

Alternatively, package recipe components separately in resealable containers for meal prep options or package the bowl as a grab-and-go meal in individual containers. Store refrigerated for 2 to 3 days.
