    Looking for an alternative to Taco Tuesday? These Short Rib Burrito Bowls are sure to please the whole family!

    A couple weeks ago, after hearing me wonder aloud for the millionth time, “why aren’t we saving more every month?”, Dan metaphorically wrestled me down and made me walk through, in excruciating detail, all of our expenditures for the previous month. Turns out, I shop a lot! And, we eat out/order in a lot! So, in an effort to be responsible grown-ups and manage our $$ more wisely, we have set spending limits & savings goals for ourselves.

    As part of our new efforts to spend responsibly, we’re eating out, ordering in less and cooking at home more. Adult-ing can be hard, but I've also discovered that it’s also kind of delicious.  It’s led to awesome homemade meals like these short rib burrito bowls. Taste-wise, they’re like a Chipotle burrito bowl, but 100 times more delicious because homemade is always better and you have more control over the toppings (guac won’t cost you extra at home). Big ol’ bowls full of juicy, fork-tender beef cooked low and slow for 8 hours, fluffy steamed rice, and tons of fresh veggies. Minimal fuss/effort, maximum flavor/satisfaction. Also, it doesn’t heat up the kitchen.

    Aren't nutritionists always telling us to eat as many colors of the rainbow as possible? Well, these burrito bowls certainly help you do that. They’ve got raw sliced radish, fresh pico de gallo, sliced avocado, and sauteed bell peppers. That’s red/orange, yellow, green, and purple. No blue, but there aren’t a lot of naturally occurring blue foods out there. I’m not putting blueberries in my burrito bowl just to eat a rainbow!

    I’m definitely going to play around and see what other yummy variations I can come up with...stay tuned! In the meantime, scroll down for today’s recipe!
