Follow these simple steps to create your amazing Taco Rice Bowl:

1. Cook the Rice: In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water or broth to a boil. Add the rice, cover, and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

2. Brown the Meat: In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, add the ground beef (or turkey). Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, approximately 5-7 minutes.

3. Add Seasoning: Stir in the taco seasoning and about ¼ cup of water. Mix well and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

4. Add Ingredients: To the meat mixture, add the black beans and corn. Stir to combine and heat through for about 3-4 minutes.

5. Fluff the Rice: While the meat and beans are warming, fluff the rice with a fork.

6. Assemble the Bowls: In individual serving bowls, layer a base of rice. Top with the taco meat mixture.

7. Add Fresh Toppings: Evenly distribute the diced tomatoes, lettuce, shredded cheese, and avocado slices on top of the meat.

8. Finish with Condiments: Add a dollop of sour cream (or Greek yogurt) to each bowl. Sprinkle fresh cilantro over everything.

9. Serve with Lime: Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top for extra flavor.

Following these steps ensures a delightful Taco Rice Bowl that is full of flavor and freshness!
