You'll Never Need Chipotle Again


You heard me right, I said, "You'll Never Need Chipotle Again"... It's a daring phrase I know, but I'm willing to risk it all for you to try this fabulous recipe that tastes like a Chipotle burrito bowl.  The combination of these flavors is amazing! I could literally just eat the whole bowl.  I dare you to try it!  So here goes nothing.... :




Mock Chipotle Burrito Bowl: 
1 Cup Uncooked Quinoa + 2 Cups water (cook first: Add 1C Quinoa to 2 Cups water. Cook on high until it boils then reduce to a simmer until all the water is absorbed (13-16 minutes))
2 Tomatoes (diced)
1 Green Pepper

1 Bunch of Fresh Cilantro- add as much or as little as you would like... chop it up into small pieces (I added about 1/2 of a bunch)
1 Jalapeno (remove seeds and dice into tiny pieces)
1 small onion or 1/2 a large onion
3 Cloves of Garlic (diced)
1 Can of Corn- drained
1 Can of Black Beans- drained and rinsed


Throw all of the above listed ingredients into a large mixing bowl and add Quinoa when it is finished.  Mix well and then mix in the sauce/dressing (listed below).  May be refrigerated or eaten fresh.  Serve on tortillas or with tortilla chips for dipping.  This will be a new family favorite!   


For sauce:
1 Teaspoon Salt (1 teaspoon)
1 Tablespoon Ground Cumin
1/4-1/3 Cup of Olive Oil (1/4-1/3)
2 Fresh Limes (squeeze juice) OR 3 Tablespoons of Lime Juice
