Taco bowls are not only delicious, no matter what protein you choose. They are easy to make and you can enjoy the food for days.
Freeing up time and energy, plus you’ll be eating delicious food in minutes. These taco bowls can be kept in the fridge, and they also freeze well.
Making meal prep the ultimate convenience.
There is no shortage of options for recipes for taco bowls:
Let’s talk about protein options:
And here is my taco seasoning recipe. I use it on everything. There is no salt added; you control how much salt you want in what you’re cooking.
Interested in another option, try this Southwest Chicken!
and there is my…
My all-time favorites to put in taco bowls are:
- Beans- Pinto Beans, Black Beans (make fresh or use canned beans, drained and rinsed)
- Mexican Rice– super tasty and super simple! Another great option is cilantro lime rice
- Corn- frozen corn or fresh, grilled or Pan Roasted Corn for a great nutty flavor
- Cilantro- oh, the fresh yumminess of cilantro on a taco bowl brings all the flavors to life!
- Cilantro Lime Sauce– in my house this is a MUST!
- Cotija Cheese– finishes the dishes off perfectly.
Other items you might like to add to taco bowls:
- Pickled onions
- Pickled Jalapenos
- black olives
Serve with Chips and Salsa, here are some great recipes:
Another way to make taco style meals with fewer carbs is to replace the rice with shredded cabbage add all the toppings, eating low carb taco bowls just got more delicious.
Taco Salad is also another great recipe.
I could eat tacos every day… to mix it up (if I had to)
I’d make some Loaded Mac and Cheese!
There are some meals that no matter what, you don’t tire of .
Taco bowls are the meals for me and my whole family,
you should see these containers “FLY” out of the fridge or freezer,
as soon as they see them… you can see them peek out from behind the door of the fridge, and the smile is as big as the sky.
I use containers like these for meal prep and leftovers.
And the sauce I make again and again for them is my Cilantro Lime Sauce, it’s so irresistible.
My fussy eater even says he thinks I should bottle it up and sell it, but we all know when it comes to sauces fresh made is great, and bottled sauces don’t always live up to the hype once you add items to make the “fresh” sauces last longer.
So making it fresh is best! It will keep in the fridge for a week and freezes well too.
These 2 oz containers are great for adding to leftover and meal prep containers.
In a pinch… I have used Don Pancha’s Cilantro Lime Crema from Costco, and it’s a good substitution, but I like homemade best!
Add some fresh avocado if eating immediately.
