in #food β€’ 8 years ago

Holy guacamole! My 6 yo and husband is addicted to rice and bean burrito πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ for dinner earlier, they requested for it but we didn't have any tortilla left, but one πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ So I made my son a burrito while for the rest of us, served on plate. Sooooo good!

Guacamole (serves 6)

1/2 of medium onion, diced
1 garlic, minced
1 medium size tomato, chopped
1 heaping tbsp chopped cilantro
2 avocado
Salt and lime/lemon juice to taste

Kinda mash avocado (we like it chunky in this house) and mix with the rest

Salsa is store bought and so is the fried/roasted soybeans

Sort: Β 

It looks very tasty ..

Thank you! It was tasty for sure. I think we have it too often though, the boys like it too much, but I don't want to prepare the same meal almost 3-4 times a week πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I love a good burrito bowl! :D

Us too! Filling, refreshing, simple, yet yummy.

My son can eat just the burrito rice for days, holy moly

Although then he would wonder why he gets so gassy πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

Agreed! Lol, finding healthy foods like this that kids will eat is a real gift :)

Beautiful post

Many thanks!
