Step 1
In a large skillet, cook beef over MEDIUM-HIGH heat until browned and cooked through, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
Cooking Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed Ground Beef. Ground Beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of Ground Beef doneness.

Arrange romaine in four bowls. Spoon over the beef and pepper mixture, beans, rice, pico de gallo, and remaining diced avocado, and then scatter over the queso fresco. Serve with avocado crema to drizzle over the top.
Suggestions
Look for pico de gallo at the grocery store or make your own (3 roma tomatoes + ½ small onion + 1 jalapeño + 1 Tbsp. chopped cilantro + lime and salt to taste). If you like, garnish this hearty salad bowl with lime wedges and sprigs of fresh cilantro.
