This recipe is so easy to prepare. Once the rice is cooked, just stir in the salsa sauce, top it up with fresh ingredients and drizzle with the creamy chipotle sauce. Takes only 5 minutes to prepare and it’s ready to enjoy!
I used basmati rice instead of white rice because it is slightly healthier and I like it’s texture. You can also use brown rice or quinoa for this recipe which is also nice. For those who don’t like or prefer not to eat rice, the ingredients with the chipoltle sauce on its own makes a delicious salad!
The salsa in the rice and creamy chipotle sauce goes so well with the rest of the ingredients!
Here’s a tasty, budget friendly and healthy meal for the whole family!
Enjoy!
