Burritos have always been a beloved dish. They’re easy to prepare and can be filled with all kinds of different ingredients. Everyone loves a good burrito. That fact is very evident in the array of burrito-focused eateries that have popped up. Chipotle, Qdoba, Moe’s Southwest Grill, and Pancheros are just a couple examples from a long list.
Taking the entire team to one of these fine establishments may be quick and easy, but it won’t be cheap. Instead of forming a caravan to transport your team to a restaurant, build your very own burrito bar! It’s easy to do, costs much less than eating out, and it’ll be an even more enjoyable experience for everyone.
Organizing a team meal does require some planning. There’s no way around that. However, a burrito bar doesn’t really need too much preparation to be a success.
Here are some ingredients you may want to include:
- Grilled chicken breast
- Ground beef/turkey
- Rice (brown/white)
- Beans (black/pinto)
- Salsa
- Guacamole
- Sour cream
- Diced tomatoes
- Corn
- Olives
- Lettuce (spinach/mixed greens)
- Diced onions
- Diced peppers
- Tortillas
- Tortilla chips
Of course you can add or subtract items depending on dietary preferences and restrictions. That’s the beauty of a burrito bar. There are so many options available.
Regarding the preparation, once you’ve gathered all of the ingredients, team up with a couple other parents and split up the load. Each parent can cook and prepare some of the fixings. Once it’s time for the meal, set up a long table and arrange all of the food on it, similar to a buffet.
That’s it! You’ve successfully created a burrito bar that the team will love. Now grab a plate, build your own burrito, and dig in.
