My healthy Vegetarian Burrito Bowl is the perfect way to kick off the year with a fresh and wholesome approach to eating. Inspired by Chipotle, I load this bowl with black beans, brown rice, and sweet corn. My secret ingredient makes it even better, and it’s ready in just 30 minutes, way healthier and tastier than takeout.
Saute garlic, jalapeno, onion, and bell pepper in 1 tsp olive oil until soft.
Add cumin, chili powder and let the spices toast for a minute. Then add the can of black beans + liquid (don’t rinse and drain the black beans before) into the pan.
Bring the mixture to a boil, let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes.
Once the bean mixture is done, start assembling your bowl! Put ¼ cup cooked brown rice in a bowl, top with ¼ of the black bean mixture. Then add your toppings: 2 Tbsp cottage cheese, 2 Tbsp corn, diced tomato, cilantro, salsa, and 3-4 corn chips crumbled on top.
