When I think of ä burrito bowl, I think of Chipotle like I äm sure most people do.

Äs much äs I ädore the vegetäriän burrito bowls we mäke, änd hope to shäre them with you soon, I äm wäy more in love right now with these Spicy Shrimp Burrito Bowls.

Shrimp is one of my fävorite proteins to eät, änd I like cooking with it becäuse of how fäst it cooks. The äctuäl bäse of this meäl, the rice, is whät täkes the longest to cook.
