PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Break the lean ground beef into small chunks and place them on the prepared baking sheet alongside the sliced bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion.

• 3

  Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the beef and vegetables, then sprinkle evenly with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Toss the ingredients together using tongs until well-coated in the oil and spices, then spread them out into a single layer across the pan.

• 5

  Roast in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes until the ground beef is fully cooked through and the vegetables are tender with slightly charred edges.

• 6

  While the beef mixture roasts, warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.

• 7

  Assemble the bowl by placing the warm rice at the bottom and topping it with the roasted ground beef and vegetable mixture.

• 8

  Finish the bowl with the sliced avocado, a bright squeeze of fresh lime juice, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.
