Steps to Prepare
  1. Cook the rice: Start by preparing the brown rice according to the package instructions, which usually takes about 30 minutes.
  2. Brown the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground beef for about 8 minutes, stirring until it’s evenly browned.
  3. Prepare toppings: While the beef is cooking, chop your cherry tomatoes, shred the lettuce, and slice the pickles.
  4. Assemble the bowl: Layer the cooked rice, tender beef, crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and tangy pickles in a bowl.
  5. Drizzle sauce: Combine ketchup and mustard in a small bowl and drizzle it generously over your assembled burger bowl.
  6. Serve & Enjoy: Dig in immediately or savor every bite as you enjoy the lively flavors right from the bowl.
