Here is a meal prep idea for the week. I’m obsessed with sushi bowls, so this is my favorite meal to eat at least 2-3 times a week. I prep these jars every Sunday and I keep them in the fridge to use throughout the week as my lunch. It’s a very simple and satisfying way to eat lots of veggies while keeping calories low. I like to add wild rice for more protein and fiber, but if you don’t like wild rice, feel free to add any other types of rice.

Ingredients

  • For each Jar:
  • 1/2 cup English cucumber

  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper

  • 1/2 cup red mango

  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots

  • 2/3 cup cooked wild rice

  • Large handful of mixed greens

  • 1/2 cup air fried tofu

  • Sushi ginger (per your taste)

  • Toppings:
  • 1/2 tsp toasted sesame seeds (optional)

  • 1 Noori sheet broken up into pieces
