Back to school may look a little different this year, but the feeling of it is here. So to help with the craziness that is this time of year, I’ll be highlighting a bunch of my favorite meal prep ideas this week! First up…tikka masala! Sometimes you stumble across a recipe that has you so excited for leftovers that you could just eat it all week. And those are the recipes we meal prep, friends. Because I’m on a forever quest to make vegan/vegetarian meal prep that doesn’t suck (see Stuffed Pepper Meal Prep, Stir Fry Meal Prep, Burrito Bowl Meal Prep). So when I first made this Chickpea Tikka Masala I knew it was bound for vegan meal prep infamy. The curry is so rich and creamy, perfect with a few slices of naan and a mound of rice!
Here’s what goes into this tikka masala meal prep
Chickpea Tikka Masala: Ready in 20 minutes and absolutely packed with flavor! Get the recipe here. Rice: Use your favorite rice here! White, brown, quinoa, and even cauliflower rice all work well. Naan: No Indian curry is complete without pillowy naan to sop it up. Make your own homemade naan with this recipe! Meal Prep Containers: These are the containers I use (pictured in the photos).
