On those nights when you just don't think you have anything around to make a decent dinner and you don't have a lot of time to fuss, the Burrito Bowl always comes through to save the day. Each of the ingredients are common items you're likely to have on hand. Plus, it's a perfect way to use up veggies lying around in the fridge. Here's what you'll need.
