Enough of these Winter blues... we decided to heat it up for dinner and make something warm, spicy, and delicious! I am a huge fan of burrito bowls from Chipotle. If you have never had one, I recommend it, but this homemade version comes very close! The burrito bowl is basically a pile of burrito ingredients minus the wrap. They are sometimes called "naked" burritos as well, but either way, it is all the goodness of a burrito without all the fuss. I fell in love with the burrito bowl because I could never finish a whole burrito when we ate out, and the bowl was easy to store and eat the next day. The leftovers also make a wonderful huevos rancheros brunch dish, but that's for another day :o)
To make the burrito bowls, we layered chipotle lime rice, then frijoles negros, carnitas, cheese, homemade guacamole, pico de gallo, then sour cream in a shallow bowl. Feel free to mix up the toppings to suit your own taste!
I highly recommend trying this out, either as a bowl or as a burrito. For the burrito, just use all the same ingredients and wrap them in a flour tortilla. Delicious!
