Taco Salad Bowls: A Recipe for More Than Just Dinner

Dina's recipe is all about keeping things simple. She uses ground beef, basic spices, and fresh toppings to create a delicious and satisfying meal. It's a twist on tacos that skips the shell, making it lighter and just as tasty. Think of it – another mom, maybe just down the street, needing a hot, home-cooked meal tonight. You're already making dinner; why not share the love (and earn a little too)?

Here's How to Make It – and Double It!

Here's a breakdown of Dina's recipe, with a few tips for doubling it and getting started on CrownRunner:

1. Brown the Beef: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 minced garlic clove and cook until fragrant (about a minute). Add 1 pound of ground beef and break it up with a wooden spoon.
2. Season the Meat: Stir in 1 tablespoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon paprika, 1 ½ teaspoons cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Cook for a few more minutes, ensuring the beef is fully cooked.
3. Prep the Toppings: While the beef cooks, shred cheddar cheese, chop cilantro and jalapeños, and prep your lettuce and avocado.
4. Build Your Bowls: Start with a bed of shredded lettuce, then layer on the cooked ground beef, avocado, jalapeño, salsa, cheese, sour cream, and cilantro.

Doubling the Recipe & Earning Extra

To double the recipe, simply multiply all the ingredients by two! That's 2 lbs of ground beef, 2 cloves of garlic, and so on. You'll likely need a larger skillet or even two. This doubles your dinner, and doubles your earning potential on CrownRunner!

What Extras Do You Have?

• Extra Beef? Freeze it in portions for future taco nights!
• Too Much Cheese? Layer it in a freezer-safe bag for a future casserole.
• Leftover Toppings? Perfect for a quick lunch salad the next day.

Imagine: you're prepping a double batch, and a notification pops up on CrownRunner – a mom across town is looking for a hot, delicious dinner delivered tonight. You’ve already put in the work; now, let someone else enjoy the fruits (or taco bowls!) of your labor.
