These hearty, vegetarian burrito bowls are loaded with avocado, beans and crispy tortilla strips then drizzled with a honey chipotle vinaigrette.

Eating a salad every day can get boring but it doesn’t have to be bland! With a little inspiration from around the world, I’m never very far away from a fresh and flavorful salad.

Whether it’s a Lebanese Fattoush Salad, greens drizzled with Japanese Ginger Salad Dressing or an Italian Garden Salad with Fennel, there are endless ways to avoid getting stuck in a salad rut.

Most recently I decided to recreate one of my favorite fast food burrito bowls bowls at home – minus the meat to make it vegetarian. While I don’t follow a strict vegetarian diet, I am always looking for more plant based meal ideas.

Filled with creamy avocado, black bean salsa and pico de gallo, this protein-packed salad is vegetarian but could easily be topped with grilled chicken, steak or shrimp.

To top, I whisk together a quick and easy vinaigrette made with fresh lime juice, honey and garlic. Drizzle in a little olive oil to thin then season with salt and pepper before serving.

For added texture and crunchy, I top each bowl with tortilla chip strips. If you don’t have any on hand, crushed tortilla chips work great as well.

Want to kick it up a notch? Serve with spicy (or mild!) pickled jalapeños. Fresh jalapeño works well too.
Your fork is waiting.
