Ingredients
Toppings (optional): prepared Poco Picante Salsa, Guacamole
Preparation
- In Multipurpose Steamer, combine rice and water. Top with tray; microwave, uncovered, on high for about 16–18 min, or until tender.
- Meanwhile, slice peppers and onions.
- Heat oil in Wok over medium-high heat. Add ground beef. Measure 1 tbsp seasoning and set aside. Sprinkle remaining seasoning over meat. Stir-fry until browned, about 4–5 min, breaking up chunks with Ground Meat Separator. Remove to a bowl and set aside.
- Add peppers, onion and reserved 1 tbsp seasoning to Wok (you don’t need to clean the Wok first). Stir-fry until tender-crisp, about 5 min. Stir in beans and cook 1 min, or until warm.
- Divide rice, ground beef, veggies, and beans between 6 bowls. Top each bowl with cheese, aioli (if using), and additional toppings, if desired.
