Oh, and I found a squeeze bottle of some cheesy chipotle sauce I bought specifically for this taco meal and had forgot all about, the following Friday in my pantry. D-oh!<\/p>\n<p>So, what was in my taco bowls?<\/p>\n<p>Rice<br \/>\nLettuce shredded up<br \/>\nGround Chorizo Meat<br \/>\nPinto Beans<br \/>\nHomemade Pico de Gallo<br \/>\nSour Cream<br \/>\nCilantro Leaves<br \/>\nLime Juice squeezes<br \/>\nCheese shredded up<br \/>\nDeep Fried Onions<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s just a list of what I had on hand prepped to use in them. Your list might be different, and that&#8217;s ok. Cooked chicken shred or cooked ground beef also works, as does pickled onions and pickled jalapenos. You can use some Mexican cheese if you have it, as well as some broken up tortilla chips if you like.<\/p>\n<p>Go crazy, or keep it pared down to five items. It&#8217;s your bowl, your way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, the other day I made this lovely quasi Tex-Mex rice bowl for our Taco Tuesday dinner.
