The beauty of burrito bowls is you can add just about anything you like and each person can customize their own bowl to their liking. Kids don't like bell peppers? No problem...more for Mom and Dad! If kids want to add cheese or more rice, then they are able to do so! This meal is so easy and a family favorite.

Two essential ingredients of the vegetable burrito bowl are salsa and tortilla strips or chips. The bowl is good on its own, but the additional of these two ingredients will make this meal a guaranteed win for everyone.

I started my bowl with a bed of my favorite homemade Mexican rice, but you can add your favorite rice, I won't judge. You can also use Mexican cauliflower rice.

Then, add in your favorite toppings, like chopped lettuce and tomatoes, sautéed yellow bell peppers, black beans, guacamole, and top it all off with salsa and tortilla strips. YUM.
