Chipotle Chicken Burrito Bowl

By -

Emma gave us this recipe. It is very good, but be very careful with the chipotle sauce (we use the red one from Walmart). It can get super hot. We use our cilantro lime recipe. This is a great weeknight meal though--I give it an 8.

Then you dump it in a pie crust, dot it with the butter, put the floating pie crust on top, put an egg wash on it, and then some table sugar.
