Description

A hearty and flavorful meal prep bowl featuring tender beef, vibrant vegetables, and wholesome grains, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust for spice preference)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice or quinoa
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5–7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
  2. Stir in soy sauce, sriracha, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes until fragrant and well combined.
  3. Meanwhile, steam the broccoli and bell peppers until just tender, keeping them vibrant and crisp.
  4. In meal prep containers, evenly divide the cooked brown rice or quinoa, seasoned beef, and steamed vegetables.
  5. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired, adding a pop of freshness on top.
  6. Allow the meal prep bowls to cool, then store them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Notes

These meal prep bowls can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, making them perfect for meal prep. Ground turkey or chicken can be used instead of beef for a lighter option.
