Taco Bowl Recipe

Meal Prep Taco Bowl

(Makes 4-6 servings)

Protein

  • 1 lb (455 g) lean ground meat (beef, chicken, turkey – or – extra-firm tofu, cut into cubes)
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp taco seasoning
  • ⅔ cup (155 ml) water

Salsa

  • 2 cups (300 g) cherry tomatoes, cut into quarters
  • 1 jalapeno, chopped (remove seeds for a milder salsa)
  • ¼ cup (30 g) red onion, chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • ½ tsp sea salt

Bowl Ingredients

  • 2 cups (190 g) cooked rice (brown, jasmine, cauliflower, etc.)
  • 15 oz (425 g) can of organic corn, rinsed & drained
  • ½ cup (60 g) goat cheese crumbles (optional)

Prepare the protein:

Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the ground meat or cubed tofu, breaking it up with a fork or cooking utensil as it cooks. When cooked through, stir in the taco seasoning and water. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

Prepare the salsa:

Combine the salsa ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well.

Assemble the taco bowls:

Divide ingredients evenly between 4 to 6 (depending on serving size) meal prep containers.

  • Taco-seasoned meat/tofu
  • Salsa
  • Rice
  • Corn
  • Sprinkle of goat cheese crumbles

Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Can be eaten cold or reheated. Don’t add the salsa until just before you eat/after you reheat it. You can change up the protein, the spices, the salsa, the carbs, and the kind of cheese. Feel free to sub in storebought salsa if you are short on time.
