So this is my favorite dinner possibly EVER 💃

May be a bold statement but my goodness, this burrito bowl casserole as I am affectionately calling it, is honestly one of the tastiest, most fun & easiest dinners you will ever make. 

It has all the good stuff in it:

• Local Ground Beef
• Black Beans
• Red peppers
• Jalepeno
• Corn
• Cilantro
• Lime
• Salsa
• CHEESE
• And some awesome spices!

It is so quick to prep & cook and has SO much flavor it’s kinda crazy! It would be a perfect meal prep meal and we often have it for dinner and then lunch for the next couple of days. We both think we could eat this dish every day and not get tired of it!! 

We like to serve ours with rice mainly with a dash of sour cream, extra cilantro and a little squeeze of lime! It would be delicious on it’s own, or served with lettuce wraps or tortillas too! We hope you try this recipe and love it as much as we do! It is such a great way to feed a crowd! 💚
