Instructions

  • Cook the brown rice per package instructions. When pressed for time, I love using microwavable brown rice. I also like to batch cook it in my instant pot. See notes for a link to the recipe.
  • Add cauliflower rice to a medium-sized skillet and saute for 3-5 minutes or until tender/ the liquid is absorbed if using frozen cauliflower rice. Turn off the heat.
  • Add the cooked brown rice and ¾ cup of cilantro to the cauliflower rice. Stir to combine. Divide the rice mixture into 5 containers. Set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, make the corn salsa by combining the sweet corn, remaining cilantro, onion, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add greek yogurt, lime juice, honey, olive oil, and salt and pepper to a mason jar. Shake vigorously to combine.
  • Assemble the meal prep burrito bowls. Divide the corn salsa, Sangria tomatoes, black beans, and avocado between the 5 rice-filled containers.
  • When ready to eat, top with the honey lime dressing and enjoy!
