I hope everyone had a very joyous holiday with family and friends yesterday. We had a wonderful day. We're very lucky to have both of our immediate families in close proximity so we are able to swing by and see all of our loved ones on holidays. It's a lot of rushing around, but we wouldn't have it any other way. Plus we get two Thanksgiving meals! Score!
I'm sure everyone is very sluggish today after too much turkey, so this is an easy one-pan meal that doesn't require too much work. It's my interpretation of an at-home Chipotle chicken bowl. Rice, beans, chicken, corn, tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole. All your favorite components in a delicious meal that hardly makes a mess since it's all done in one pan! Talk about an easy clean up. Enjoy!
