Instructions
- Place a pan on medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of oil and the onion and jalapeño. Sauté the onion is cooked almost through, add the garlic, a pinch of salt and the spices, sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add the beef, break it up in the pan, cooking it with the spices, onion, pepper and garlic, after it’s cooked about medium, still a little pink, add the poblano pepper, stir. Continue to cook the meat until it’s almost cooked through and then add the beans, stir everything in together, gently because you want the beans to retain their shape, add the tomatoes. Cook another 2 minutes, until the meat is totally cooked. Add half a bunch of chopped cilantro, 1/4 cup sliced olives, a splash of apple cider vinegar, stir the mixture, and a squeeze of a lime, for brightness. Stir again and then remove from the heat.
- While the meat and bean mixture sits, prepare a simple guacamole.
- Take 3 ripe avocados, chop them in chunky pieces, mash them in a bowl, add fresh juice from 1 to 2 limes, a pinch of salt. Add cilantro and blend until guacamole is creamy and all ingredients are combined.
- Serve the burrito bowl over rice or a green salad, top with guacamole, sprouts, cilantro, and any other toppings you want.
