I realized quickly after making this meal prep that I’ve been making a grave mistake for years now. You see, the tulip-man falls into the camp of people who hate cilantro, so I’ve been avoiding cooking with it by default. But then my craving for Tex Mex food became too strong and I blended up the cilantro dressing for these Spanish rice meal prep bowls and realized the terrible mistake I’ve been making by avoiding cilantro. Because this cilantro dressing is so heckin’ good, and ties together the roasted veggies and Spanish rice perfectly into flavorful meal prep heaven.
Here’s what goes into this meal prep
Spanish Rice: This Spanish Rice is ultra-easy to make and full of flavor. (25 minutes to make). Roasted Veggies: Roasted sweet potato, bell pepper, and corn will round out our meal prep to keep you full all day. Feel free to throw in whatever veggies you have on hand! Cilantro Dressing: This dressing is so good, friends. Herby and zingy and creamy, it makes this meal prep so addictive!
In addition to being full of flavor, this is also a relatively cheap vegetarian recipe. Rice and beans make it a complete source of protein while keeping this affordable. Step aside, steak, there’s a new protein powerhouse in town. Let’s eat!
