The beauty of a bowl-style dinner is the DIY element. This meal begins with a base of zesty rice and richly spiced ground beef, then jazzes things up with homemade salsa, Monterey Jack cheese, a limey crema, and blue corn tortilla chips. When ready to build your bowl, feel free to go wild with assembly. Crema on bottom! Rice on top of chicken! Crush up your tortilla chips for a crunchy garnish, or serve along the side for scooping—follow your heart!

• Wash and dry produce. • Finely dice tomato. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; finely chop a few slices until you have 2 TBSP. Zest and quarter lime. Halve, deseed, and finely chop jalapeño. (TIP: Leave seeds in for more spice!) Peel and finely chop garlic.

• In a small pot, combine rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

• While rice cooks, in a small bowl, combine tomato, chopped onion, half the lime zest, a squeeze of lime juice, a drizzle of olive oil, and as much jalapeño as you like. • Season generously with salt and pepper. Set aside.

• Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion and a big pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add beef*, garlic, Southwest Spice Blend, and another big pinch of salt. TIP: If you like things spicy, add any remaining jalapeño. • Using a spatula, arrange beef into an even layer. Cook, undisturbed, until browned on bottom, 3-4 minutes. Break up into pieces; cook, stirring occasionally, until beef is cooked through, 3-4 minutes more. TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out.
Open package of chicken and drain off any excess liquid. Swap in tofu or chicken for beef (no need to break up into pieces!).

• To pan with beef, stir in tomato paste and stock concentrate, then add ¼ cup water (1/3 cup for 4 servings). Cook until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes more. • Stir in 1 TBSP butter until melted; turn off heat.

• While beef cooks, in a second small bowl, combine sour cream with a squeeze of lime juice. Season with salt and pepper. Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.

• Fluff rice with a fork; stir in remaining lime zest and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Season with salt and pepper. • Divide rice between bowls. Top with beef mixture, Monterey Jack, salsa, and crema. Serve with tortilla chips and remaining lime wedges on the side.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
Great flavors, really like this meal. When I originally rated this I forgot that the tomato was very small, so small that I added a Roma tomato I had on hand. I feel like quality of ingredients has gone down as they appear to be smaller in size. This is 3rd meal where this has happened. I have photos. The flavor was great!
The taste was great and I really liked the finished product but I think the only gripe I have is that I think its a little ridiculous that two people are supposed to share the one bag of chips. Just a bit odd but it was very good regardless.
Doubled tomato paste, Beef Stock Concentrate and Sour cream, added Cholula Hot Sauce to sour cream, added Monterey Jack Cheese to finish chicken.
The chicken mixture combined with the rice was so delicious. The flavor was fantastic.
Great flavor we opted for the ground turkey! Will get this one again
My 11 year old said it's his favorite thing I've cooked!
Raw red onions. We chose to cook them instead. The cream was an excellent add to top everything off and brought everything together.
This was really good! I needed way more cream, though. I barely had enough for one serving. More cheese, too!
If I'm going to hand make pico, I want to make a lot more. Not worth the work for the amount it makes.
Would be nice to have the option to order more rice
