Copycat Chipotle Veggie Fajita Burrito

Copycat Chipotle Veggie Fajita Burrito is one of the simplest dishes to make. However, the length of the name can turn one-off, but don't let it fool you! The burrito can serve as the main course for lunch and dinner. The yummy fillings are tender and flavourful and, the large tortilla gives the dish the sweet and tasty covering.

You will need chopped cilantro, chopped cabbage, salsa, large tortilla, shredded vegan cheese, lime, avocado, white rice, canned pinto beans, red onion, oil, sliced green bell pepper, salt, and pepper. The total preparation time is 25 minutes. Cook the white rice and season with salt, pepper, and any sauce you want. We prefer to stop at just salt and pepper. Heat the beans for one minute in a microwave. For the guacamole, make sure you have avocado, lime, juice, salt, and pepper. Make the fajita veggies by sautéing are diced green bell peppers and red onion in oil, and season with enough salt and pepper.

The preparation is quite easy as it involves assembling the rice, beans, guacamole, fajita veggies, mashed avocado, cilantro, cabbage, salsa, and warm tortilla (after microwaving it for less than a minute). Roll up the tortilla into a burrito shape and serve with hot sauce or extra guacamole and salsa. Squeeze a lime over the top for an extra bright flavor. Enjoy!
