Mexican Rice and Black Bean Burritos or Burrito Bowls

A quick, easy dinner for tonight. Yummy burritos with chicken, cheese, rice and beans. I will admit, this looked much better before I tried to fold it. I filled mine a little too full, so be careful about that. We absolutely love these Tortilla Land flour tortillas (not sponsored, Tortilla Land doesn’t know I exist! lol). They just taste so much better than already made tortillas. I just wish I could find the burrito size. That would have helped my overfilling issue.

This is also delicious as a burrito bowl. I only ate one burrito and then had a small portion as a burrito bowl. It was so good!

This is again kind of a non-recipe. You can vary how much of the ingredients you include based on how many burritos you want to use. Tonight, I made 1 recipe of the rice, two cans of black beans, and I was the only one who used chicken. So, this can be more of an assemble your own burrito bar. Add whatever toppings you desire. I will include some ideas below.

Mexican Rice and Black Bean Burritos or Burrito Bowls
Ingredients:
1 recipe of my Restaurant Style Mexican Rice
1-2 cans of black beans, heated
Shredded cheese of your choosing (I used Mexican blend)
Flour tortillas (I used Tortilla Land soft taco sized)

Additional topping options:
Cooked, shredded or diced chicken or steak
Taco Sauce (I used Taco Bell mild and it was really good)
Guacamole
Sour Cream
Salsa
Chopped onions
Cilantro
Tomatoes

Layer desired fillings in a tortilla or your bowl and enjoy!

Not the best picture since I overfilled mine, but you get the idea. :) This was so good and so easy. If you haven’t tried the Restaurant Style Mexican Rice yet, you should. It’s super easy to make and very versatile.

Hope you enjoy it!

Vegetable Lo Mein

Okay, I already messed with the menu. :) I didn't get to get to the store in time to get the potatoes for mashed potatoes to have with the meatloaf. So I had to make the lo mein instead of the meatloaf yesterday. I kind of did my own thing but with help from this Chicken Chow Mein recipe and this Vegetable Lo Mein recipe. First I boiled the noodles. Then fried them in the skillet in a bit of oil. This really helped them not stick together. And I'm sure gives it more flavor. I took the noodles out of the pan and put them in a dish until it was time to add them back. I then started stir frying the veggies. Mushrooms, onions first. Then a bag of coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots), some bean sprouts. I microwaved a small bowlful of broccoli and added that. I also added a can of sliced water chestnuts. I mixed one cup of chicken broth and a tablespoon of cornstarch and added that to the veggies. Then added a tablespoon of reduced sodium soy sauce and a tablespoon or so of oyster f...
