Greek Beef Bowls are high in protein and packed with flavor! They're perfect for meal prepping or delicious for dinner. Seasoned ground beef is combined with zesty lemon rice, creamy tahini sauce and veggies in this tasty Greek-style bowl recipe.
If you haven't already prepared the lemon rice for these bowls, start cooking the rice before preparing the other ingredients for the bowls. I also recommend preparing the lemon tahini sauce, or sauce of your choice, before starting the bowls.
For the beef, add 1 tablespoon olive oil to a large skillet on the stove over medium high heat.
Add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook through, 7-8 minutes.
Remove from the heat and drain any grease from the skillet.
Place the skillet back on the stove over medium heat.
Add the diced roma tomato, cinnamon, salt, allspice, cayenne pepper, ground cloves and beef broth.
Let simmer on the stove for 5-7 minutes.
In the meantime, heat another skillet on the stove over medium heat and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
When hot, add the spinach leaves and drained can of artichoke hearts.
Cook down for 2-3 minutes.
Assemble the bowls by adding ½ cup lemon rice to each bowl, then dividing the beef mixture and spinach and artichokes between each bowl.
Drizzle lemon tahini sauce over the bowls and finish with fresh parsley.
Notes
To make the bowls low carb, omit the lemon rice. This will bring the total carbs per bowl to 11 grams and the net carbs to 7 grams per bowl.
Replacing the lemon rice with ½ cup cauliflower rice in each bowl will add 2.5 net carbs and 4.5 total carbs to each bowl.
To make these bowls plant based, replace the ground beef with meatless crumbles, and swap the beef broth with vegetable broth.
