In a small pot, combine the white rice, water, and a pinch of the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a low simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Done when tender and water absorbed.
While the rice cooks, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a small bowl with a pinch of the salt. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, for 6 minutes until browned and opaque in the center. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Stir in the black beans, chili powder, cumin, and the remaining salt. Cook for 3 minutes until the beans are heated through and the spices are fragrant.
Fluff the rice with a fork and place it in a bowl. Top with the ground turkey and black bean mixture and the fresh salsa.
