Bold & Flavorful Beef Enchilada Meal Prep Bowls (Meal Prep for 4 Lunches!)
Each bowl is layered with bold Mexican-inspired flavors and textures that hold up beautifully in the fridge. The seasoned lean ground beef is simmered in enchilada sauce for a rich, savory base. Then, it's paired with fluffy Spanish rice, roasted corn, and hearty black beans for balance and fiber. A sprinkle of shredded cheese and a side of light sour cream pull it all together. Best of all, this recipe reheats like a dream, making it a reliable and satisfying lunch you’ll actually look forward to all week.
Equipment
- 1 Fry Pan
- 1 Strainer
- 4 Lunch Containers
- 4 Condiment Containers
Ingredients
- 1 lbs 96/4% Ground Beef
- 3 tbsp Taco Seasoning (I use Dak's)
- 1/2 cup Canned Enchilada Sauce
- 1/2 cup Pico de gallo
- 1 cup Black Beans
- 2 cups Roasted Corn
- 2 cups Spanish Rice
- 1/2 cup Light Mexican Shredded Cheese
- Light Sour Cream (optional)
Instructions
- Cook up your ground beef with the taco seasoning and enchilada sauce.
- While your meat is cooking, strain all liquid from your corn and beans (if canned) and set aside.
- Make your pico de gallo. I bought mine pre-diced at the store!
- Cook your spanish rice per directions. I used Uncle Bens microwaveable rice bag.
- Once your meat and rice are done, assemble your bowls and top with shredded cheese!
- I like sour cream with mine so I put those in equal amount condiment containers.
- Reheat your bowls in the microwave for 2 minutes, mixing everything together half way through. Then stir in your sour cream or leave it on the side!
