    Easy Weekday Dinner: Chipotle Burrito Bowl Recipe

    Forget Chipotle, these homemade Burrito Bowls are a healthier, clean-eating version you can make at home!

    Can I make a confession? I never ate at a Chipotle until a few months ago.  They didn't have them in the small North Carolina town we lived at this time last year, and while I had heard about them, I had never actually visited one.  When we moved to the DC area last May and finally visited one I was honestly a little bit overwhelmed-it struck me a little like Starbucks where everyone else was super familiar with the menu and "system" they have for ordering and I had no clue what was going on!

    Since that time I've fallen in love with their burrito bowls-I love the fresh ingredients and was determined to start making my own clean version at home-it's become one of our family's very favorite dinners (I could eat it every night if my husband would let me!!)

    I love that these burrito bowls are filling and full of amazingly fresh ingredients-and the steak is perfection marinated in such rich seasonings!

    Would you add something else to the burrito bowls? What favorite topping of yours did I miss in my recipe?

      Honestly, I've never been there either. However, this looks like a simply tasty, yet quick dinner. No wonder that place is so popular!

      This sounds really good. I have never been to Chopotle. We do have one in town, but the packed parking lot always turns me off. I don't do well with crowds especially if I am hungry.
