Introduction

This is a great, very low fat & easy alternative to Chipotle's Cilantro Lime Rice for all Mexican dishes. I use this rice in my own Homemade Chipotle Bowl.
Ground Turkey, Black Olives, Lime Rice, Pico De Gallo, Pureed Avocado & a 1/2 serving of Guiltless Gourmet Tortilla chips. You can add some plain greek yogurt & a little Raw cheddar cheese. Organic Valley makes the best Raw cheeses. Enjoy! This is a great, very low fat & easy alternative to Chipotle's Cilantro Lime Rice for all Mexican dishes.
