Tex-Mex Quinoa Bowls
I'm actually not quite sure what makes these bowls Tex-Mex besides the fact that I am in Texas and I thought it appropriate. In any case, they are delicious! You can add meat if you'd like, but we are trying to reduce our meat intake so vegetarian it is! I used chicken broth as a water substitute when I made the quinoa, but these can be made vegan by omitting the broth. Quinoa can also be subbed out with rice.
Enjoy!

As always, be sure to use clean ingredients when preparing meals. If you'd like a list to guide you on what ingredients to avoid, as well as a ton of other helpful wellness info, I have one available in my shop.
