Let's make burrito bowl meal prep together!

I haven't done meal prep in forever and this barely counts (two days haha). But this one is a family favorite especially with the cilantro lime rice. We will definitely be doing this again! And you can swap this ground turkey meat out with any other type of meat or meat replacement!

You can find most things in the YouTube Products Shop section of this video for everything I used in this video but here are some links as well!

Team cilantro. Fortunately don't have the gene that makes it taste like soap. Love just lightly bundling the stems and leaves and chopping it all. So good! No waste. 🌱

I LOVE CILANTRO!❤ have it with every meal, I'm not eating without it

Cilantro tip: you need to get dried cilantro if you want to cook it in with the rice and it will rehydrate and add the flavor to your cooking. Fresh cilantro is best used uncooked like in Pico, salads or as a garnish
Also to extend the life of fresh cilantro stick it in water in the fridge or an herb fresh container

Something that has helped me tremendously- write down either in your phone notes or somewhere you’ll never lose it, every single recipe you know how to make (if you haven’t already). I have a list of all the meals I know to make on a note in my phone, so that every week when I meal plan I can visually scroll through chicken meals, beef meals, soups, pastas, casseroles, etc that I know how to make and I know the recipes for and it has made meal planning so much easier. That way you can review it before going to the grocery store, like, “ok I’m going to make chicken pot pie, for that I need carrots….potatoes…etc” and then you can go to the grocery store with a list comprised of your meal plan. It can be time consuming at first, but once you get the hang of it, its a total game changer for grocery shopping and meal planning! Much easier than the days of being like, “hmm, what should we make for dinner tonight?” Also something helpful for me since I’m a visual person is having a weekly meal plan (just for dinner for now, like you said in the video) magnetized dry erase board on the fridge, the one I have has boxes for Monday-Sunday, so that while I meal plan every Monday, I write in each day and each meal that we’ll be having for dinner. It’s like a menu, it’s so fun! It makes days with toddlers much more predictable which is so nessescary amongst the chaos, plus there’s much less food waste because you can write in days to just eat leftovers which makes things even easier.

I was surprised that you only use cilantro leaves. Here in Brazil we have the habit of chopping everything and putting it in our food.

I’ve been watching and staying up to date with your videos but I really love watching the cooking videos! There’s so many ways to cook these meals! I’ll have to try this way!

[ericahipolito]

I’m loving your cooking and grocery shopping videos!

I love your rambling about cilantro. Don't think you need to cut that out.

A great dinner meal prep is lasagna roll-ups. Easy to freeze✨ You can add Aldi frozen spinach for extra veggies or sub impossible or another brand to make it vegetarian. 🌱

So inspiring. Always getting ideas from you.

My fave thing is to cook up tortellini pasta for a couple days and then add either chicken to it or eat it as it is 😊

[AngieSantacruz-lnts]

Rather than large scale meal prep, I find it easier to just make extra portions of whatever I am cooking at any time so I always have leftovers that I eat for the next meal(s). When I used to go into office for work, leftovers were always my lunch which was really nice. Also, I have like 2-3 super easy to prep meals that I enjoy eating so I always make sure that those ingredients are always in my fridge. That way I am not tempted to order food when I feel lazy.

Def team cilantro—stems and all lol💚Love how the individual containers turned out—very nice👌🏾Going to use the tip about adding the cilantro after cooking.

I love meal prepping! I normally start on Saturdays (my husband's breakfast & lunch for the work week) & finish on sundays (our dinner for the next few days & my work lunch). When that runs out we'll eat whatever we have home or eat out once a week. I do prefer freshly cooked meals but I like it better spending a few hours cooking for a day or two vs every other day. I think it saves more time that way.

I made this without the cilantro and replaced beans with kidney beans because it’s what I had. And my son it. I’m not confident in my kitchen skills. And you made this video so easy to follow and with a handful of ingredients. I appreciate that as a single mom who cooking is not my forte. Also. It was super easy to make and I have enough for the week for me and my son. I’ve never meal prepped but I finally did now !!

[lisadawson]

Your skills and ideas are getting better and better each video well done 👍🏾

I agree about adding cilantro to rice while cooking dilutes the flavor. My hack, I chop up the stems from cilantro and add those while cooking. Flavors the rice and uses a part that usually gets thrown away by most people. Then after cooking the rice I add the cilantro leaves.
