I love Chipotle and their delicious burrito bowls; they’re filling & seriously delicious! I’m sure there are many variations to this recipe, but the following is by far my favorite! [& Tony helped himself to TWO GIANT bowls!]

For the Chipotle Sauce:
- 1 cup regular Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons green salsa
- 1 glove garlic, pressed

Method:
- Make chipotle sauce by whisking together Greek yogurt, green salsa, garlic, lime juice, and sea salt. Refrigerate until serving.
- Cook quinoa according to packet directions. Once quinoa is cooked, add in chopped green onion, lime juice, garlic, & cilantro. Mix together in serving bowl to burrito bowls.
- To create the fantastic-ness of the burrito bowls, you could divide quinoa into serving bowls, top with lettuce, corn, beans, tomatoes, avocado and cilantro.
