Chipotle Mexican grill is famous for tacos, burrito bowl and tortilla wraps. Evey ingredients are put to your bowl in front of you according to your taste and spiceyness. We really liked this dish and it becomes our favorite lunch spot. As it is very simple and easy and healthy full of vegetables. So i thought to prepare this dish at home and it came awesome. :) Here is my version of Mexican veg burrito in Chipotle style...

  • Cooked Rice - 1 Cup
  • Capsicum - 1 cup chopped
  • Onion - 1 cup chopped

Lemon Cilantro Rice

Add cooked rice in a bowl and squeeze half lemon and 1/2 cup cilantro/coriander leaves mix everything well and keep aside until use. or (You can use the rice as per your flavors. Either use plain rice or  lemon cilantro mix rice or cumin seeds/jeera rice. Here I used jeera rice)



Baked Beans

Cooked baked beans till soft and tender. Usually in chipote they use kidney beans as I did't have the stock at home, I used black chana/bengal gram instead. It tastes good too.
