Chipotle Bowl

June 22, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 17 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Happy Friday!!!  Thursday night was fend for yourself night, and I was craving Chipotle.  I love Chipotle but oddly enough no one in my family likes it, which I think is crazy!!  So out of pure laziness, I didn’t want to drive there, so I decided to create my own Chipotle Bowl for dinner.

I made this bowl a couple of weeks ago and just loved it and I had to re-make it again to share it with you.  Remember back a few weeks ago when I did my freezer cooking?  If you recall I froze a batch of roasted sweet potatoes, corn and black beans.  One of the best freezer batches I’ve ever done!  I used my freezer goodies to make this salad/bowl.


This bowl literary took about 3 minutes to make.  I popped my whole freezer bowl in the microwave for 3 minutes and it was heated perfectly.  While it cooked I chopped up my lettuce and tomatoes.  Once my bean mixture was done I placed a little bit of it on top of my lettuce, added some cooked chicken, salsa and greek yogurt and it was ready for me to eat it!

I just love quick night dinners!  Than it gives me time to work on my blog and just chill for the evening.  This bowl is just loaded with flavor everywhere.  When I roasted my sweet potatoes I used cinnamon, salt and Cayenne pepper for a kick of heat.  I used my favorite salsa to give it more flavor and topped it with Greek yogurt to cool off the heat from the salsa and to make it creamy.  I have to say I like my bowl better than Chipotle’s because it has more flavor in it, less greasy and I was able to know how many calories I was actually consuming.

I figured out the calories the best I could since I used a medley of vegetables, but I am pretty sure I am pretty close to being on.  I wish I figured the calories before I froze my batch of veggies.  Next time I will!  If you like Tex Mex food, you should really freeze a batch of corn, black beans and sweet potatoes.  The combination is just wonderful.  As I’m writing this I realize the only thing missing in this bowl is an avocado.  I just thought of that now.  Darn it!!

Do you like Chipotle Restaurant?   I love it, but I do try to stay away.  I really love the Fajita Burritos, but the calories of the burrito is through the roof!   The calories for just the flour tortilla shell is 290 calories.  I don’t even get much on it, just chicken, fajita vegetables, lettuce and salsa and I’m looking at 540 calories and 16 grams of fat!  So I skip the shell and I get my bowl with black beans added and I’m at 370 calories and 8 grams of fat, much better and not to bad for a dinner!  Now the chips are a whole other story!  The chips with medium salsa is 585 calories.  Ahhhh!!!  But ohhhh, how I do love their chips!  They taste like there’s lime on them and so much salt.  Why does good food have to be so high in calories?  Now every now and again, I’ll order my burrito and chips, but only as a treat.  I do, really believe you shouldn’t stop eating what you love, you just have to do it in moderation.  So if I’m going to be good all day, than I’ll get a burrito, if I’m bad I’ll get the bowl.  So what do you order at Chipotle???

I would love to chat more, but it took me almost 3 hours to write this post.  It seems I am having computer issues.  While I was writing this I had to contact my host server and I was informed they may not be able to handle my blog anymore.  Oh no!!  I downloaded an optimizer plug-in so I’m hoping that will help.  So I am cutting this short, since I can’t down load anymore pictures.  Forgive me on this one!

Have a great Friday and wish me luck with my computer issues.  I hate these kind of problems!

See you tomorrow!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    This is such a big bowl of tastiness! I love chipotle’s food but it’s such a calorie nightmare and even though I always MEAN to eat half…somehow the whole bowl ends up in my stomach. I love your version!

    I ate a vegetarian burrito bowl from Chipotle for lunch today, as I often do during the work week. I love them but anything homemade is always better!

🌸~🌼~🌸 WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIEN 🌸~🌼~🌸 WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR ENGAGEMENT TOUR! 
~M🌼Y your day be filled with happy moments and beautiful flowers! 

I decided to create a zinnia garden this year and I am so excited to see it bloom. A few flowers started to show. I didn’t want Sully 🐶 in the garden, so I put a fence around it.  It worked for about 3 weeks. I was on stories yesterday, showing other parts of the garden and I turned around and saw Sully in my garden. I must have screamed so loud. He was stuck in there and panicking because I was. I got him out and no damage to any of the flowers. That was scary!

Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went cherry picking. It was so fun! We got so many cherries. I’m guessing about 9 pounds. I have no clue how two people are going to eat 9 pounds of cherries? But we will try.
🍒
I am so happy we were actually able to pick cherries. We missed out the past couple of years. The season comes up so fast and only lasts a couple of weeks. Plus it gets so busy that the traffic is awful. That’s one thing about California is the traffic is so bad here that it takes the joy out of doing things. But not this year! I got my cherries!! 
🍒
If swipe the photos, you will see the bucket of cherries and a couple cherries on the tree.

What is your favorite cherry recipe?

☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIE ☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR TOUR! 
M🌸Y every flower lift your spirits!

I am sharing with you my Everblooming Hydrangea. This is a full sun hydrangea. I planted it last year and it did so crappy. I was shocked to see so many flowers on it. We have had a relatively cool Spring, so it’s been happy. Today it got hot out and I just went out to look at the hydrangea and it’s shriveling. So I need to capture this moment before it poops out this summer.

We are a fabulous group of friends sharing their love of flowers and elements of nature inside and outside our homes throughout the seasons!

Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. I can’t believe that this weekend is Mothers Day. It just seems early this year. I am not sure what are plans are going to be this weekend?
🌷
I am sharing with you the @krumpetshomedecor deal of the week. It’s a set of two mango wood trays with a beautiful rope handle.
🌷
The bigger tray I used to make a tulip arrangement. It’s such a great size. The last photo is also how I used the tray on my bed. The smaller tray is perfect for holding my olive oils in my kitchen. These trays will fit in about  any space. I just love them.
🌷
Don’t forget that Krumpets Home Decor is having 25% off there whole site. Plus you can use my 10% off discount code on top of the sale price: PBANDP. The link is in my bio.

Do you have any plans for Mothers Day?

Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. I have been sneezing like crazy and then my nose runs. Ugh! I never have allergies. It must be all the crazy weather. We’ve had high winds since last Tuesday and temps in the 70’s. Tomorrow mid 90’s, then back to the 70’s. No wonders my allergies are acting up.
🌸
I’ve been adding a little decor to my patio area. I love adding pillows and blankets for pops of color and to give a cozy feel. One of my newest additions is my new Verdure Wooden Candle Lantern that I got from @icosiest_furniture. It adds a romantic ambience in the evening.
🌸
The lantern is made from Fir wood and has a beautiful jute handle. The lantern can be hung or placed on a table. The candle is battery operated and looks so beautiful flickering in the evening. Swipe the photo to see it.
🌸
I love the style of the lantern and it would also look fabulous styled indoors. I can see the lantern on a shelf, centerpiece or on a console table. 
🌸
For a closeup of the lantern, check out my highlight. COSIEST was kind enough to give my followers a 15% off anything in there store: Jennifer15. The link is in my bio. 
🌸
Do you have allergies? If so, are they bad for you this year?

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. We had Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. We had such beautiful weather. It was in the 70’s and sunny. I did a lot of work outside. Got some plants planted and rearranged my patio because I was #gifted a new dining set from @alphamartsus 
🌷
I am so excited to have an outdoor dining set. It’s going to be so fun to eat dinner outside, in front of my zinnia garden and water fountain. I’m so excited, you have no idea. 
🌷
The dining set is the PHI VILLA Rattan Dining Chairs Set with Extendable Table Patio Dining Set. The set I have is the 9 piece, but they also have a 7 piece set. You have your choice of chairs, cushioned or high back. I like the high back. The chair gives great support and is so comfortable to sit on.
🌷
The table is made of high quality metal with a special powder coating that will with stand the outside elements. The table is 60” long but can be extended to 83”. It’s so easy to extend the table. The leaf is built in and just flips to make the table longer or shorter. Swipe to see the leaf and how long the table is extended. The first few pictures, the table is extended to 60”. 
🌷
For more information on the dining set, check out my highlight. The link for Alpha Mart is in my bio.
🌷
Do you like to entertain outside?
