  • 1 lb. Ground beef

  • 2 cups Cooked rice (white, brown, or Mexican-style)
  • 2 cups Nacho cheese Doritos, lightly crushed

Optional Toppings:

  • 1 cup Shredded lettuce

  • ½ cup Sour cream
  • ½ cup Salsa or pico de gallo

  3. Assemble the Bowl: Start with a base of rice in each bowl. Add a generous scoop of taco meat on top. Layer on your favorite toppings: lettuce, tomatoes, beans, and cheese.
  4. Add the Crunch: Sprinkle a handful of lightly crushed Doritos over the top just before serving. This adds the perfect crunchy texture to every bite.
