Start by preparing the brown rice according to the package instructions, which typically takes about 30 minutes.

While the rice cooks, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the lean ground beef, seasoning it with salt and pepper. Cook for about 8 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula until it’s browned and no longer pink.

As the beef browns, chop the cherry tomatoes in half, shred the lettuce, and slice the pickles. Set them aside in small bowls.

Once the rice is cooked and the beef is browned, layer a generous scoop of brown rice in each serving bowl, followed by the seasoned ground beef, then top with shredded lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced pickles, and a sprinkling of grated cheddar cheese.

In a small bowl, mix together equal parts ketchup and mustard. Drizzle this over your assembled burger bowls.
