Do you love Mexican food? Do you crave it pretty much every day like I do?? If you’re into burritos, you’ll dig this deconstructed burrito recipe– where you’ll find all of the ingredients of a rockstar burrito… in a bowl instead. I do enjoy a classic burrito wrapped in a big ‘ol giant flour tortilla, but sometimes you just need to give your body a break from that sort of thing and go with a new flow.
This recipe is so easy to make. Take a peek at all of the ingredients pictured above. If there’s anything you’re not into, substitute it with something else. But these are all the ingredients that make this burrito bowl “rockstar,” so don’t change too much! The pork used for the recipe is from Smithfield’s line of already-marinated pork. I used the Applewood Smoked Bacon Pork Loin Filet for my recipe- it’s 100% fresh pork slow marinated with Applewood Smoked Bacon. I love that it comes pre-marinated… it saves me time in the kitchen when I’m crazy busy assembling dinner, and the pork is ready to cook with great flavor already in there.
I sped up the grilling time by butterflying the pork tenderloin into one flat, thinner piece. It grilled very quickly, and it turned out to be as juicy and flavorful as can be. Easy! I packed these burrito bowls with our favorites: lettuce, tomato, cheese, black beans, rice and fresh salsa. They’re garnished with a lime for squeezing and a generous drizzle of a simple avocado- lime crema (basically, a jazzed-up guacamole).
You can include a few tortilla chips for dunking or eating too, if you have a family that demands that sort of thing (um…. my family!) Since this recipe can be prepared in less than 30 minutes, that makes it a perfect weeknight dinner that is totally family friendly. Who doesn’t love burritos??
