A Few Notes & Tips

Perfect for Meal Prep

This easy and healthy chicken burrito bowl is great for meal prep. It is a healthy dinner or lunch that you can enjoy throughout the week. It’s high in protein, healthy, and keeps you full.

Why Use Taco Seasoning?

Using a package of your favorite taco seasoning helps to save time and makes this recipe easy. By using a taco seasoning, it eliminates the time it takes to measure out all of the spices. Also, it’s great if you don’t have a lot of spices at home because it’s all ready to go. Additionally, large quantities of spices tend to lose flavor over time and you may not need a whole jar of the spice. The taco seasoning packets are super fresh and easy to use. This is such an easy and convenient trick to use when making this chicken burrito bowl!

Ingredients

• 1 onion

• 1 container (about 1 lb) of ground chicken or turkey breast

• salt, pepper, garlic powder

• 28 oz diced fire-roasted tomatoes

• taco seasoning of choice

• 1 can corn

• 1 can pinto beans

• 1 can black beans

Directions

• Spray a large pan lightly with oil. Then, chop up an onion and sauté it in the pan.
• Add salt to the onions. You will know the onions are done cooking when they are translucent.
• While still in the container add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to one side of your protein of choice.
• Then flip the container over to add it to the pan and season the other side with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Use a spatula to get your protein in small pieces while it cooks.
• Incorporate the onions with the protein. Make sure to flip the protein to thoroughly cook both sides.
• Once your protein is thoroughly cooked and in tiny pieces, add your taco seasoning to the container of crushed tomatoes. Then, stir in the seasoning in the can of tomatoes before adding it to the pan. This ensures that the spices are evenly mixed throughout the sauce.
• Pour the crushed tomato and taco seasoning mixture into the pan. Then, thoroughly combine all of the ingredients.
• Add in the pinto beans, black beans, and corn. Make sure to rinse and drain the beans before adding them to the pan. After everything is thoroughly combined, put a lid on the pan. Let everything simmer in the pan on low for 5-10 minutes.
• Once cooked, feel free to add whatever toppings you like. We like to add cheese, avocado, and salsa.
