Cook the rice by preparing according to the package instructions, usually takes about 30 minutes. Boil water, add rice with a pinch of salt, reduce heat, cover, and simmer until tender.

Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for about 8 minutes until browned and internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Drain excess fat.

While the beef is cooking, chop cherry tomatoes, shred lettuce, and slice pickles. Arrange toppings in bowls for easy assembly.

Assemble by layering cooked brown rice, browned beef, then adding lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. Top with cheddar cheese.

Mix ketchup and mustard in a small bowl and drizzle over the assembled bowls.

Serve directly in bowls or plate for a formal presentation. Enjoy!
