Chipotle style burrito bowls

These chipotle style burrito bowls feature some burrito bowl classics with a healthy twist! They’re also 100% vegan and gluten-free!

Happy Friday everyone! Today is actually an extra special Friday because today is cinco de mayo! And What better way to celebrate than with some healthy and delicious Mexican cuisine?

I’ve teamed up with my favourite salsa brand Rojo’s to bring you a dish that has all my favourite Mexican inspired ingredients loaded into one bowl! Rojo’s salsa is made in small batches and refrigerated using high-quality ingredients like fresh tomatoes and onion, which gives it a natural taste. I used their fire roasted salsa for this recipe, but feel free to use whichever flavour you like!

I love this recipe because it is loaded with tons of natural plant-based protein & carbs so it’ll keep you full and satisfied for hours. I like to use sprouted brown rice for this recipe for great flavour and texture, but plain brown rice or quinoa will work just as well. This bowl is great made on the spot, but it’s also an amazing dish for meal prep! Simply layer all your ingredients in Tupperware or container and take this chipotle style burrito bowl on the go with you.
