Chipotle Burrito Bowl Recipe
I finally pulled myself out of a 3 week flu stupor to prepare a Mexican food dinner with a Chipotle burrito bowl recipe. Yes, around this home we eat a lot of Mexican, Italian, and Middle Eastern inspired dishes. Every once and a while we will toss in a curry or two to break up the mundane. What can I say? We are just huge fans of salsas, sauces, and mezes!
Creating a copycat recipe for the Chipotle burrito bowl is really not that hard… just some rice, beans, meat and other goodies. But, with those basic ingredients you might want something a little more flavorful than opening a can of this or that. THAT is where I enter the picture with some tasty recipes that you can use to create your burrito bowls. {Or you can just open a few cans of this and that and call it a night.}
From the Chipotle website about their burrito bowls:
Chiptole Burrito Bowl – Served in a bowl, choice of cilantro-lime rice, pinto or black beans, meat (braised carnitas or barbacoa, adobo-marinated and grilled chicken or steak) or guacamole, salsa and cheese or sour cream.
To create your own Chipotle Burrito Bowl at home, use these ingredients for your family to choose from to build your own Chipotle Burrito Bowl:
- Romaine Lettuce
- Crema Mexicana
- Cilantro Lime Rice
- Chipotle Black Bean Recipe
- Guacamole
- Chipotle Corn Salsa Recipe
- Chipotle Restaurant Chicken Recipe
This is a fairly “healthy” recipe since it’s grilled chicken and fresh veggies. Of course the way I make mine adds a bit of fat and calories that I could do without but I can’t resist sour cream. YUM.
Oh and please forgive my not so beautiful photos — it can take up to an hour to stage and photograph a dish and I am still wiped out from the flu.
What is your favorite way to eat a Chipotle Burrito Bowl? I actually enjoy just veggies only and no chicken.
Buster didn’t hang out in the kitchen with me today while I was cooking but Bobbie did enjoy the pepper I gave her. I am not sure how that bird knows when I have jalapeno peppers but she does and “begs” for them.
