Albondigas Burrito Bowls Recipe

Step-by-Step Instructions

• STEP 1.In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground meat, cooked rice, cilantro, egg, breadcrumbs, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined. Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs. You should get about 20-25 meatballs.

• STEP 1.Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the meatballs in batches, turning them occasionally, until they’re golden brown on all sides and cooked through (about 8-10 minutes). If you prefer a lighter version, bake the meatballs at 375°F for 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through and browned.

• STEP 2.While the meatballs are cooking, prepare the rice. I recommend using cilantro lime rice for an extra burst of flavor. To do this, simply cook the rice as usual and mix it with lime juice and fresh cilantro. In each serving bowl, layer a base of cilantro lime rice, followed by black beans, corn, and the delicious meatballs.

• STEP 3.Top each bowl with fresh avocado slices, a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese, and a dollop of sour cream. Garnish with extra cilantro and a lime wedge for that zesty finish. If you’re into spicy food, drizzle some salsa or hot sauce for a kick.

• STEP 4.Serve the bowls with a refreshing lime wedge and enjoy! The flavors will come together in each bite, offering you a deliciously satisfying meal that’s perfect for any night of the week.
