Notes
These taco bowls are the perfect solution for when not everyone likes the same things! Even the pickiest of eaters can be satisfied with this meal. Besides what is listed above, you can always add on some sautéed peppers, sour cream, jalapeños, cilantro, or even corn.
Personally, I like to change it up based on my mood. Sometimes I’m really craving something spicy and these do the trick with some salsa on the side. There was this really good jalapeño cream at Whole Foods but they don’t sell it anymore! If you see something like that, try it! I bet it would be delicious with this meal.
As always, if you try it, let me know! I’d love to hear what you think. Let’s connect on social media! See you there!
