More Vegetarian Dinner Recipes to Try
For this Vegetarian Burrito Bowl recipe, I recommend:
Box grater – You can save a ton of money by grating a brick of cheese yourself, rather than buying pre-shredded cheese. 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!
