I am a big fan of "bowls" these days.
I am looking for any and everything to roast or saute! Our weather has been super spastic. It's been rainy, cold, hot, humid, and cloudy, all in the same day. I am so confused on what season we are in especially since we have been quarantined now for 3 weeks. I think it's spring! Here is a yummy bowl our family likes. Don't forget you can throw some tortilla chips for a crunchy topping, or grab a couple of tortillas and wrap all this goodness up. I always give my kids the option of putting all of this over tortilla chips to create some kind of nachos. Burrito nachos, yeah, that sounds good. Anyway, get creative! We have time.
INGREDIENTS:
2 sweet potatoes
1 c beans (black or kidney)
1 c of corn or 1 off the cob
1/2 onion chopped
1 avocado
1 c cooked quinoa
baby tomatoes
handful of spinach
2 tbs taco or fajita seasoning
salsa to taste
maybe a little ranch
maybe tortilla chips or tortilla if you want!
