My husband is a big fan of the bowl or burrito from his favorite fast-casual Mexican food place. On days when I don’t feel like eating out, this is my go-to alternative to satisfy that craving with­ out leaving the house. If you love the elements that make a big burrito, this one’s for you: it’s cheesy, packed with beans and beef, and topped with crispy tortillas.
