More color means more nutrients when it comes to fresh fruits and veggies. This colorful ground beef nourish bowl is packed with all the added benefits. With ground beef being the star of many plates online right now, it is only fitting that I create a few of my own recipes with this ingredient. At one point in time I would have said that I was never eating meat again. But, I have learned the importance of having diversity in our diets and how each ingredient provides our bodies with specific nutrients that it can use to continue to thrive. While these nutrients are beneficial to all people, ground beef is especially beneficial to women due to it’s richness in iron, protein, and zinc which support healthy hormones.
Ingredients (4 servings)
1 lb ground beef (93/7)
1 cup dried brown rice
4 Tbsp sauerkraut
3 mixed bell peppers
3 zucchini
4 Tbsp avocado mayonnaise
2 Tbsp olive oil (Get a discount on my favorites here)
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp onion powder
pepper, to taste
Italian seasoning, to top
Appliances & Utensils
frying pan
rice cooker or small pot
knife and cutting board
Instructions
Cook the rice according to package.
Wash the veggies and chop into smaller pieces. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add veggies, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and sauté for 6–8 minutes until slightly tender but still vibrant. Set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil. Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a spatula. Sprinkle in garlic powder, cumin, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 8–10 minutes.
To make the bowls, scoop brown rice, sautéed veggies, seasoned ground beef, and a scoop of the sauerkraut. Top with the avocado mayo, Italian seasoning, and enjoy!
Pro Tip: If you don’t have avocado mayonnaise on hand, top with fresh avocado or a light vinaigrette for some added healthy fats.
