 Chipotle Veggie Bowl


Here is a delicious chipotle veggie bowl with Fajita veggies, black bean, guacamole and tomato Salsa. You can make any variations to this by replacing tomato salsa with tomato corn salsa, add any other veggies to Fajita, replace rice with brown rice. 

Below are the different ingredients and sides I include in my veggie bowl, which is also my family favorite.

You can make any variations to this.

1) Cilantro-lime rice,

2) Canned black beans,

3) Veggie Fajita

4) Tomato Salsa or Pico de Gallo

5) Guacamole

6) Sour Cream

7) Shredded Cheese

8) shredded lettuce

9) Cholula Hot Sauce


How to make Cilantro-lime rice

Cook the Rice with Olive Oil, Salt, bay leaf(optional), 2-3 Cloves (Optional)

Once the rice is cool, Add little Olive Oil, freshly squeezed Lemon juice and chopped Cilantro. You can adjust the amount of lime and cilantro depending on your personal preference.


How to make Veggie Fajita

Slice or Stripe the colored bell peppers and Onions. I like to add few Jalapenos, but this is completely optional.

Heat Olive Oil in a Skillet and add the chopped onion and pepper slices. Sprinkle with Salt, Cumin/Jeera Powder, red chili flakes, Oregano,  garlic powder (optional). Fry until veggies are tender.


How to make Guacamole

Take 2 ripe Hass avocados and mash it with a  fork. I like to get few small chunks of avocados while eating. But if you like creamy one, then use the blender and mash it.

 Add 2 tsp lime juice, 2 tbsp. cilantro (chopped), ¼ cup red onion (diced), ½ jalapeño including seeds (diced), and ¼ tsp salt. 

Optionally add chopped tomatoes, black pepper powder and finely chopped fresh garlic.


How to make Fresh Tomato Salsa or Pico de Gallo

Fresh tomato salsa is ideally made with firm, fleshy tomatoes like Roma tomatoes. Roughly Chop the tomatoes, Red Onions, Chili peppers and Cilantro. Place all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse few times to dice the ingredients and not puree it. Now add lemon juice, Salt and black pepper.


If you do try this out or want to share any variations, do leave a comment. Would love to hear from you.

Not only is it important to follow a good skincare routine, but its also paramount to understand our skin, our surroundings / environment as well as the ingredients in any skin care product.
