Instructions

- 22. Make the cucumber‑tomato salad: In a separate bowl, toss sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and chopped parsley with minced garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- 33. Cook the jasmine rice: Use chicken bone broth as the cooking liquid for the rice according to package instructions; keep warm.
- 44. Cook the ground beef: Heat a large skillet over medium‑high heat, spray with avocado oil, and add the ground beef. Let it sear untouched for a few minutes to develop a crust, then break it up, add minced garlic, olive oil, and the Mediterranean seasoning blend. Stir and continue cooking until the beef is browned and cooked through.
- 55. Assemble each bowl: Place a serving of rice at the bottom, top with the seasoned beef, a generous dollop of the yogurt sauce, and a heap of cucumber‑tomato salad.
