One of our favorite places to eat is this Mexican Restaurant down the street. Extra tall beers, spicy salsa with chips, and and grande burrito thats filled with all the goodies. We never get to go out to eat very much anymore so I figured I would bring our favorite home.

Mike always gets this “Grande Burrito” that is stuffed with chicken, steak, chorizo, and shrimp. So I wanted to make something similar so came up with these Shrimp & Chorizo Burrito Bowls. They turned out awesome!
