Chipotle Mexican Style Donburi- A fusion of Japanese and Mexican tastes

Vegan, Filling, Well Balanced Dish

Surprisingly delicious combination! Who doesn’t enjoy a bowl of rice with goodness on top of it. Donburi literally means “rice bowl dish”. There are unlimited different kinds of Donburi in Japan. The great thing about it is that it can be made from almost any ingredients, including leftovers!

This recipe is a fulfilling meatless Mexican style Donburi. One of our favourite vegan sausages is the Field Roast Chipotle Sausage. If this is not available to you, please substitute with a similar product. Another option is to use extra firm tofu, crumble with your hands the same way, add some chipotle pepper powder, or chili pepper, salt and pepper to taste.

The amazing marriage of the smoked hot chili pepper with the creamy avocado, the light lettuce and fresh tomato all on top of a bed of rice! It will become a quick go to dish for you!!
