A healthy burrito bowl your family will love for dinner.
I absolutely love Chipotle’s burrito bowls so I trying to find a healthier option. Although not a copy of the original, I am certain you will like this one. My family loves this as a healthier option. It is not only healthy, but it is also easy to make.
AuthorChuckHThis is a delicious dish that can be made as mild or spicy as you wish. I did not add sour cream or guacamole.
Ingredients:
Directions:
Cook chicken in a slow cooker or bake it in the oven. You can season it with some salsa or your favorite spice. I used Chimichurri seasoning as a drink rub and a little hot salsa. I cooked the chicken for 4 hours in a slow cooker. Once complete, shred chicken with a fork.
Cook Birdseye Southwest Protein Blend in Microwave. Place 1/4 cup of the mixture in each bowl.
Heat the refried beans in the microwave. I cooked it on high for 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of the refried beans per serving.
Add 4 ounces of the chicken per serving.
Add 1-2 tbsp of Picante per serving.
Add sour cream, cheese, and guacamole to taste.
Top with chopped jalapeno.
