Best Mexican Bowl Recipe
This is the best Mexican bowl recipe because it uses authentic Mexican spices and ingredients. You can add a few more ingredients to this dish if desired such as corn, tomatoes and fresh jalapenos. And even cheese if desired!
WHAT GOES IN A MEXICAN BOWL
You can have just beans such as black beans or pinto or you can have just meat such as pork, chicken or beef. Or have a mix such as I have in this recipe, you can also shred the meat if desired or cube it.
Then you want to cook the protein first and while that is taking place prepare the fresh ingredients on the side to serve all together in a healthy bowl which makes for an excellent meal.
