This week has been a whirlwind of meal prep deliciousness (see these Stuffed Pepper boxes and this Zucchini Pasta Pesto prep). So like, are you ready for more meal prep? Because I am!

Especially when that meal prep involves…BURRITOS! Vegan burrito bowls, to be exact. These make ahead lunch bowls basically define really tasty clean eating (like, the clean eating you actually crave). Because they’re jam packed with so much flavor. There’s the tempeh taco meat, the Chipotle-inspired herby cauliflower rice, the creamy cashew queso. There’s just so much going for it.

They take 30ish minutes to prepare and give you lunch for the week. Need I say more? Let’s do this.

Burrito Bowl Meal Prep Ingredients

  • Tempeh Taco Meat: Grated up tempeh + spices = the best vegan taco meat of your life. Tempeh taco meat recipe here (15 minutes to make).
  • Chipotle-Inspired Cauliflower Rice: Herby cauliflower rice that tastes just like the stuff from Chipotle! Cauliflower rice recipe here (15 minutes to make).
  • Cashew Queso: A quick blend of soaked cashews and spices make for the most addictive vegan cheese sauce!
  • The Extras: Tortillas, avocado, romaine, sliced bell peppers
