Instructions

Cook the Taco Meat: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat. Add taco seasoning and water as per the packet instructions. Let it simmer for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Prepare the Rice: Cook your rice according to package instructions. For extra flavor, use chicken broth or add a pinch of cumin to the water.
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.
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.
