Mexican Beef Bowl

If there’s one thing I love, it’s a meal that ticks all the boxes: tasty, balanced, easy to throw together, and full of goodness. Enter: the Mexican Beef Bowl - a dish that delivers big on flavour and fuel, without the fuss.

This recipe is a weeknight winner, packed with lean beef, fresh veggies, and plenty of flavour. It’s one of those meals you can feel great about eating - high in protein, moderate in healthy fats, and low in processed carbs. Whether you’re training hard, trying to keep your energy up for work and family, or simply want something satisfying without the food coma, this one’s got you covered.

The beauty of a bowl-style meal is its versatility. Load it up with whatever fresh ingredients you’ve got on hand. Add some avocado for creaminess, corn for sweetness, or a squeeze of lime for that zesty punch. I’ve kept the recipe lean and simple, but don’t be afraid to add your own twist.

Prep this in advance and you have lunches sorted for the week!

All in under 30 minutes.

Pro tip: Want to keep things extra light? Swap out rice for cauliflower rice or bulk up the veggies even more.
