Notes
- Make these burrito bowls low carb by replacing the rice with cauliflower rice
- You can also use leftover cooked chicken or buy a rotisserie chicken to speed things up
- You can pick and choose any vegetables and greens you like, they are super versatile and are perfect for using up leftovers in your fridge
- If you are making these for lunch or dinner later on or the next day then add any dressings and sauces last. If you can, put them in a separate container and take it with you to keep the veggies fresh and crisp.
