Drum roll please, last week I invented my own recipe! haha... As I was driving home from a really long day of work, I was craving a burrito from Chipotle, but couldn't convince myself to do the "fast food dinner." Also being cheap and not wanting to spend the money for a burrito, I started thinking about what I had in my kitchen and realized I may have what I would need to make my own burrito filling, just without the burrito shell. So I started putting things together and it turned out really good!! I like to call it.... Jamie's Mexican Fiesta :)
Ingredients:
1 lb ground chicken (or beef would work too)
1/2 onion chopped
many shakes cumin (to cover)
a few generous pinches of chili powder
2ish cups of chunky salsa
1 can of black beans, rinsed
about 1 cup frozen korn
heaping tablespoon of sour cream (more or less to taste)
cooked white rice
1. Brown ground meat in skillet with onion and spices. Once cooked, add salsa, black beans, korn, and sour cream. Mix well and let warm through.
2. Mix in, or serve on top of, white rice.
Serving options-
wrap in a burrito shell or if you don't have burrito shells (like me), use tortilla chips to scoop or mix in.
You can probably add red/green bell peppers or jalpeno peppers, hot sauce, garnish with fresh cilantro, mix in some cheese... but like I said, I just used what I happened to have on hand. So if you feel like being inventive, feel free to play around with this idea!
