Chicken Burrito Bowl

Mexican food is definitely a favourite in the O'Neill household! From enchiladas to nachos, mexican meals are alway packed full of flavour and character. This meal is perfect if you're looking for a beautiful bowl of colour to brighten up these long dark evenings. This is my go to dish when I'm looking for something healthy and packing loads of flavors. The beauty of this dish is it's versatilty - you could swap chicken for prawns and chorizo, steak or even halloumi. You could also add pinto beans, guacamole, salsa, jalepenos or sour cream
