EASY BURRITO BOWLS

EASY BURRITO BOWLS 

I finally made a burrito bowl at home. Well, I guess it’s more of a burrito plate. But still. Burrito bowl, burrito plate – I’m in love.

With fresh veggies and just 10 min prep with a creamy chipotle drizzle, what’s not to love?

Plus, this is completely customizable to add in your favorite proteins. Or if you’re like me, you can keep it vegetarian. There’s plenty of goodies to go around here!

And if you really want to go that extra step and make these even healthier, you can use quinoa in place of the rice.
