Mexican Burrito Bowl

"We like to get burrito bowls from Chipotle, but aren't thrilled with paying for it several times a week. This isn't anything I'd claim as a "clone", but is "inspired" by Chipotle/QDoba's burrito bowls. It's tasty, easy and filling. As a bonus, it's pretty good without any meat, making it a really viable option to serve a mixed group of vegetarian/carnivores for a party."

  1. Absolutely delicious! What a fun and different way to have burritos. We definitely enjoyed this dish and will make again soon.
     
  2. I can't believe how easy this was to prepare and how quickly my husband emptied his bowl. Thanks so much for taking the time to share this recipe.
     
  3. Also tastes good with taco meat w/seasoning, a hint of paprika, cayenne pepper, chile tomatoes, and chipotle and blackened corn.
     
  4. Good mood food.
     
  5. I admit, I butchered your recipe a bit to fit what I had on hand (which did not include white wine or mexican cheese, unfortunately), and I had to make taco meat to please the hubs, but it was delicious! I bet it's even better how it's meant to be made =]
