Tips for Making Vegetarian Burrito Bowls

Here are a couple of pointers for making these veggie burrito bowls:

• To keep this recipe vegan and completely plant-based, do not top with your bowls with cheese and sour cream. However, feel free to use your favorite vegan alternatives instead!
• If you are going to use cheese, don’t buy pre-shredded cheese! You can save a ton of money by grating a brick of cheese yourself. Pre-shredded cheese also contains additives that prevent the cheese from sticking together in the bag. So if you grate the cheese yourself, it will melt better too.
