Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls

Special thanks to Sprouts Farmers Market for sponsoring this delicious recipe for Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls, it’s absolutely perfect for the warmer weather months!

Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls with Roasted Corn, Pico de Gallo, Sour Cream and Creamy Cilantro Dressing using Sprouts Brand Beef and Products AD | Mama Harris' KitchenThe weather is getting warmer y’all, and that’s the time of year that being tied to a stove or oven is probably the last thing you want to do. Of course, you and/or your family still need to eat, so simple meals are a must! I know my family really enjoys bowls year round, but especially in the summer. A few leftovers thrown together with some fresh seasonal produce and you have got some serious magic on your hands.

Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls with Roasted Corn, Pico de Gallo, Sour Cream and Creamy Cilantro Dressing using Sprouts Brand Beef and Products AD | Mama Harris' KitchenI recently took a trip to my local Sprouts Farmers Market and picked up some great items like fresh Pico de Gallo and their Sprouts Brand Hatch Chili Guacamole. I also grabbed lots of fresh produce, some tortillas to make little strips with and some fresh beef from the meat department that I knew would be just perfect for fajitas. Not just regular fajitas though, this was for the fajita brown rice bowls I’d been dreaming up for these warm weather months.

Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls with Roasted Corn, Pico de Gallo, Sour Cream and Creamy Cilantro Dressing using Sprouts Brand Beef and Products AD | Mama Harris' KitchenWith a quick and simple marinade in olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic and a handful of seasonings this meat is tender, juicy and flavorful. I love that the varieties of Sprouts beef is always fresh and never frozen, producing tender and juicy fajitas with tons of flavor. After cutting the steak into bite sized pieces, a quick soak in the marinade while the veggies are being cut is all that this recipe needs.

Once meat has browned, add the cooked veggies back and mix them together before serving. Bonus if the pan is still sizzling when it’s served!

Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls with Roasted Corn, Pico de Gallo, Sour Cream and Creamy Cilantro Dressing using Sprouts Brand Beef and Products AD | Mama Harris' KitchenWhat I love about these fajita bowls is that they utilize leftovers too. Have some corn on the cobb left over from the recent cookout? Slice it off the cobb and add it to this bowl! Brown rice left in the fridge from dinner the other night? Add it in! It’s a quick way to get some food on the table, and oh so delicious!

Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls with Roasted Corn, Pico de Gallo, Sour Cream and Creamy Cilantro Dressing using Sprouts Brand Beef and Products AD | Mama Harris' KitchenAdd the prepared brown rice and roasted corn to the bowl with the fajita meat and veggies. Top with guacamole, pico de gallo and sour cream. Add a few lime wedges on the side and you’re set. If you really want to get fancy add some freshly made tortilla strips and a creamy cilantro dressing and garnish with additional cilantro. Impressive!

Author: Mama Harris' Kitchen
Recipe type: Dinner
Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
For the Fajita Meat
  • 1.5 lb. Sprouts Boneless Beef Round London Broil
  • ¼ cup Sprouts Brand Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 Tbsp. minced garlic
  • 1 tsp. ancho chili powder
  • 1 tsp. red pepper flakes
  • ½ tsp. cumin
  • ½ tsp. smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp. dry oregano
  • ¼ tsp. ground cayenne pepper
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into strips
  • 2 Tbsp. Sprouts Brand Extra Virgin Olive Oil
For the Beef Fajita Brown Rice Bowls
  • Prepared Fajita Meat
  • 3 cups prepared brown rice
  • 3 cups prepared roasted corn kernels
  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • Sprouts Brand Hatch Chili Guacamole
  • Sprouts Brand Pico de Gallo
  • 2 cups tortilla strips (optional)
  • ½ cup creamy cilantro dressing (optional)
  • 2-3 limes, cut into wedges for garnish
  • Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
  1. Begin by preparing the fajita meat and veggies. Cut the steak up into strips, about two inches in length.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, chili powder, red pepper flakes, cumin, smoked paprika, salt and pepper, oregano and cayenne pepper. Mix together to create a saucy paste.
  3. Add the beef strips to the saucy paste and toss to make sure it’s all coated.
  4. While the beef sits, prepare the peppers and onion by cutting them into strips. Heat a larger frying pan with the remaining two tablespoons of oil and sauté the peppers and onions over medium heat until softened (about three to five minutes).
  5. Remove the peppers and onions from the pan and place in a bowl, set aside. Without cleaning out the pan, add the steak meat and sauce to the pan and cook over medium heat until meat is browned (about three to five minutes).
  6. Without lowering the heat, add the peppers and onions back to the pan. Stir until well combined and cook for about a minute more before removing from heat.
  7. To serve in fajita bowls, add about a ½ cup of rice and ½ cup of roasted corn kernels to bowl before adding fajita meat.
  8. Top with sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo. You can also add a bit of tortilla strips for a crunch and some creamy cilantro dressing.
  9. Serve with limes and garnish with cilantro. Serves 6.

[Sponsored]: Summertime is coming and will be here before we know it! You all know that I love easy meals during the warmer months, and I also love a good meal in a bowl. It’s also Vidalia Onion season 🧅 so I paired this seasonal favorite with pan-seared shrimp and veggies as a light rice bowl using your choice of grains.☺️This meal is an absolute delight!

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
