Prepare arepa dough by mixing flour with water and salt until smooth.

Divide the dough into equal portions and shape into discs.

Cook the discs on a hot griddle until lightly golden on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.

In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat and sauté onion, garlic, and bell pepper until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Add ground beef to the skillet, season with cumin, salt, and black pepper, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Remove the beef mixture from heat and stir in chopped cilantro and lime juice.

Slice each arepa in half to create a pocket.

Stuff each arepa with the beef mixture and cheese, pressing gently to seal.

Return the stuffed arepas to the griddle and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts.

Serve warm with avocado slices and sour cream on the side.
