Cottage Cheese Taco Bowl

Three glass bowls are filled with cottage cheese, cooked ground beef, pico de gallo, shredded cheddar cheese, and avocado slices.

A protein-packed, creamy cottage cheese taco bowl meal prep that’s perfect for lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

.5 lb ground beef

1.5 tablespoons taco seasoning

4 roma tomatoes

1 small white onion

3 jalapeños

1 lime

pinch salt & pepper

3 cups cottage cheese

1/3 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

1 avocado

Instructions

Brown ground beef in a large skillet. Prepare and cook taco seasoning packet according to instructions. When finished cooking, remove taco seasoned ground beef from heat and set aside.

Dice tomato, onion, and jalapeño. Add to a mixing bowl and toss with salt, pepper, and juice from the lime. Set aside.

Divide cottage cheese evenly among three meal prep containers. (I use pyrex glass bowls with lids.)

Top each with the ground beef, cheese, and vegetables.  (If using avocado, I recommend slicing and adding them right before consuming to avoid browning.)

Seal each bowl with a lid in store in the fridge up to 4 days.
