Notes

Chef Jenn's Tips

  • I love setting all the ingredients out and letting people build their own bowls. 
  • Use sharp cheddar cheese or for a bit of a kick, use a Tex-Mex blend. Pre-shredded cheese is just fine. 
  • You can use drained and rinsed black beans right from the can, or dress them up with your favorite homemade Mexican black beans.
