These Mexican Rice Bowls make the easiest weeknight dinner! They’re quick to assemble, budget-friendly and made with simple ingredients.

This rice bowl recipe has become one of my family’s favorite meatless dinners. It’s kind of like a vegetarian taco salad that married a burrito bowl. And let’s just say, it’s a match made in heaven! Ha!

My husband and kids are big fans because it is just so delicious! And the kids especially love the crunch that the corn chips add.
