Instructions
Cook Cilantro Lime Rice
Cook white rice according to package directions. Once done, fluff with a fork and stir in the juice of 1 lime and the chopped cilantro. Season with salt to taste and set aside.
Brown the Turkey
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add ground turkey. Break it apart with a wooden spoon and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until no pink remains. Drain any excess fat, then add taco seasoning and 0.25 cup of water. Stir well and simmer for 2 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
Warm the Beans
Add the drained black beans to a small saucepan over medium heat. Season lightly with salt, cumin, and a pinch of chili powder. Heat for 3 to 4 minutes stirring occasionally until warmed through.
Assemble Bowls
Divide the cilantro lime rice evenly among 4 meal prep containers. Top each with seasoned ground turkey and warm black beans. Add a scoop of fresh salsa to each bowl. Allow everything to cool completely before sealing and refrigerating for up to 4 days.
