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
