Vegan burrito bowl. Black beans, rice, corn, diced red onion, salsa, avocado, lime, and cilantro. Easy to make and is a great way to use up leftovers.
Jump to RecipeI’m going to make this a quick one today. If you’ve made the black bean soup from the last post and happen to have any left that you haven’t devoured, making a vegan burrito bowl is a great way to make it into a different lunch or dinner the next day.
It’s simple-
- Steam up some rice
- Reheat the black bean soup or open up a can of black beans if you didn’t make the soup… you should really just go make the soup and save this recipe for tomorrow!
- Cook some frozen corn
- Slice avocado and limes
- Top with salsa and other toppings you like. Lettuce, pico de gallo, shredded jackfruit, sauteed mushrooms, sauteed peppers and onions… you get the point here I’m sure. Anything you like will work. The bowl is your canvas! š
The real message I want to get across is- I know life is hectic and crazy for most of us and I know that our eating habits and nutrition usually end up taking the hit. It happens to all of us, but little shifts in your planning can help keep you on track. This vegan burrito bowl is an example of what I’m talking about. I made the Instant Pot Black Bean Soup with Avocado Croutons yesterday, but I made sure to make extra for dinner tonight. Now I could’ve had the exact same dinner tonight and that would’ve been fine, but when you’re trying to keep things interesting for your partner or family, a slightly different preparation can do wonders. Double the recipe for whatever you’re making andĀ figure out a way to use itĀ the next day for lunch or dinner. Some sort of bowl is the easiest way to do it for us vegans it seems. It’s healthy, tastes great, easy, filling, and cost-effective… what’s better than that? Hope you enjoy the vegan burrito bowl!
