Chipotle style burrito bowls you can make at home





Who’s ready for Cinco de Partay-o? I know I am! I don’t really “partay” to celebrate it per se but I’m excited to sip on margaritas, dip my chips into some killer guacamole, eat a few slices of carnitas pizza, and have a long siesta afterwards ;)

In regards to this celebration that we all know is just a mere excuse to throw back some margs and cerveza (or at least for us in the States), I’ve got the perfect compliment to soak up that booze cruise that’s going on in that stomach of yours.

Chipotle-style burrito bowls.

Raise your hand if you’re obsessed with Chipotle or crave it a lot. Uh, I’ve got both my hands raised and my feet.

I don’t know what it is with Chipotle or their crack-induced guacamole or chicken, but I seriously could eat there twice a week, or more. It doesn’t help that there’s like THREE of these darn establishments in a 2 mile radius from my house AND it’s also in every mall in the area. Guh, I just can’t get away from it. I try to cut down the calories while eating at Chipotle by having no beans and no cheese and brown rice instead of white rice (yes, they offer BROWN rice now. Thank you, Chipotle).

Now, I don’t really know how cutting out those two toppings can help the calorie count on my massive burrito bowl that weighs about as much as newborn child, but I do know I scarf it down as if I haven’t eaten in seven days.

Okay, so the nitty gritty. Making this at home is EASY and you can tweak everything yourself and it’s HEALTHIER because you know what’s actually going in all the toppings. Everything is homemade in these fake-out Chipotle burrito bowls. Errrything.

If you like more carbs or just don’t like the fact that this is a naked burrito, you can easily make this bowl into a burrito by shoving all the ingredients into a soft tortilla.
