Instructions

Heat cooking oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until browned. Drain excess fat.

Add taco seasoning, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the beef. Stir well and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Stir in the rice, shredded carrots, and broccoli florets. Pour in 2 cups of almond milk (or water). Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Stir in the fresh spinach until it wilts, about 2-3 minutes.

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Final Notes

Serve hot directly from the skillet for a comforting and complete meal. This dish is excellent on its own or with a dash of hot sauce.
