Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef: Choose lean ground beef (80/20 or 85/15) for the best balance of flavor and texture.

  • 4 large eggs: Perfectly cooked to your preference (fried, scrambled, or poached).

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil: For cooking the beef.

  • 1 small onion, diced: Adds a touch of sweetness and flavor.

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced: Infuses the beef with a savory, aromatic taste.

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika: Gives the beef a subtle, smoky flavor.

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder: Adds a hint of spice and depth.

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt: To enhance the flavor of the beef.

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper: For a touch of heat.

  • 1 cup baby spinach or kale: For a burst of color and nutrients.

  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved: Fresh and juicy, adding a sweet, acidic contrast.

  • Optional toppings: Avocado slices, shredded cheese, green onions, hot sauce.

Instructions

Cooking the Beef

  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and diced onions. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

  • Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a spatula.

  • Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, chili powder, and minced garlic.

  • Cook the beef for 6-8 minutes or until browned and fully cooked, stirring occasionally.

  • Once cooked, stir in the baby spinach or kale and let it wilt for 1-2 minutes.

  • Remove the beef from the skillet and keep it warm.

Cooking the Eggs

  • In the same skillet (or a separate one), add a little more olive oil if needed.

  • Crack the eggs directly into the skillet and cook to your preference: sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled.

  • Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Assembling the Bowl

 

  • Divide the ground beef mixture among four bowls.

  • Top each bowl with a cooked egg and a handful of cherry tomatoes.

  • Add optional toppings such as avocado slices, shredded cheese, green onions, or a drizzle of hot sauce.
