We all have a bit more time to cook as we’re locked insides our home and my family is always down for quick carnitas and spanish rice. You can serve these in warm tortillas with cheese or as burrito bowls – there’s no right or wrong, and it is ALL GOOD. Please feel free to use any kind of toppings you have on hand and don't forget to eat your greens!

And if you have some ice cold beers on standby, that will also work perfectly as a side :)
