Step-by-Step Instructions for Burger Bowls
  1. Begin by preparing the brown rice according to the package instructions, which typically takes about 30 minutes.
  2. While the rice is cooking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 8 minutes until browned.
  3. Chop the cherry tomatoes, shred the lettuce, and slice the pickles as the beef cooks.
  4. Layer a scoop of freshly cooked brown rice in each bowl, then add the browned beef, followed by the lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the ketchup and mustard for a zesty dressing. Drizzle this mixture over each bowl.
  6. Serve your Burger Bowls straight from the kitchen or plate them for a formal touch.

Notes

Opt for fresh ingredients to enhance flavor. Allow cooked beef to rest before serving to retain juices. Experiment with sauces for variety and ensure even cutting for best texture.
