These turkey taco burrito bowls have been so popular since I shared them. I am so happy that y’all are loving this recipe. It really is so delicious, has big flavor, and it’s a dinner that everyone likes because you can customize your own with whatever toppings you choose.
When I make these (which is often!) I put different taco toppings in bowls and set everything out buffet style on the counter. This is also a great meal to serve to a large group or dinner guests because it makes quite a bit and can feed a large family or a crowd.
Or, make it and then eat the leftovers for lunch all week. Which is really the best option because the leftovers of this are still as amazing as the first day!
The key to these turkey taco burrito bowls is to let the meat simmer for as long as you can. The biggest negative I get about this recipe is that the meat mixture is soupy. The only reason it’s soupy is because it was not simmered on the stove top long enough. The longer it simmers, the thicker it will be.
I like to get my turkey mixture going and once it’s simmering I start cooking the cilantro lime rice. By the time the rice is done the meat has been simmering for about 25 minutes and it’s perfect.
I normally will make some pico de gallo but seeing as how my 3 month old is teething. Yes! Teething! {side note: I did not think that it was possible to teeth so young. But it is.} He never wants to be put down and his little tears running down his face just make it impossible for me to do so. I’m a sucker for cute little chubby babies 🙂 I just knew that I would not have the arms available to be chopping up tomatoes, cilantro, and onion. So I bought some at the store and it was delicious.
Same with the guacamole. I normally will mash up 2 avocados, squeeze the juice of 1 lime, and add a couple pinches of salt to make my own. But again, the cute chubby teething baby makes it impossible. So I bought some and it was yummy and made dinner much easier to prepare.
