      Tex Mex Bowl

      High Protein Vegetarian No Shellfish Nut-Free American Dinner
      Serves 4 (1 serving = 10 chips and 1 Tex Mex Bowl)
      Prep time: 10 minutes
      Total time: 10 minutes

      Description

      Think kidney-friendly eating is bland? Not so! This delicious meal has a bit of a spicy kick, yet the ingredients are almost entirely plant-based. Plants pack a ton of fiber and anti-inflammatory nutrients to help you feel great and live longer. Whole, less-processed fruits, veggies, beans, seeds, nuts and whole grains are the healthiest go-tos for snacks, meals and even desserts.

      Directions

      1. Drain, rinse and heat black beans.
      2. Layer ½ cup cooked quinoa into each bowl.
      3. Add ½ cup black beans to each bowl.
      4. Add ½ cup lettuce to each bowl.
      5. Top each bowl with 2 tablespoons salsa, ¼ cup cheese, 2 tablespoons sour cream and 1 tablespoon green onions.
      6. Serve with 10 tortilla chips and enjoy!
