Yes, but keep a few things in mind. You can freeze certain parts of the Vegan Chipotle Bowl like the sweet potatoes. It's best to used previously prepared sweet potatoes like the ones in our Crockpot Sweet Potatoes meal prep idea. The kale and other vegetables should not be frozen. The kale can be frozen, but you can freeze that raw without sautéing it. If you want to freeze the beans and corn, don't cook them all the way so they're not soggy when you reheat them.
For Cilantro Agave Dressing
For Topping
Since our Vegan Chipotle Bowl meal prep lunch idea is pretty fresh, the meal doesn't take long to cook at all. Your meal is done in less than 20 minutes.
The first thing you do is make the dressing. To do so, combine ingredients in a blender and blend until its smooth. Divide your cilantro agave dressing into 4 small cups and set aside for now. Next, combine sweet potatoes and seasoning in a mixing bowl. Stir well and set aside.
Now, all that's left is sautéing the kale and adding the rest of the veggies. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet and sauté kale for 3 minutes. Stir in corn and black beans, then cook for 4-5 minutes longer. The kale, corn, and beans mixture go on top of the sweet potatoes. Then you top that with tomatoes, red onions, and pumpkin seeds. When you're ready to eat, drizzle the cilantro agave dressing on top and devour. Being vegan never tasted so good!
Serve this in a bowl or store it in a meal prep container for later. This recipe yields 4 servings. Divide sweet potatoes amongst 4 meal prep containers and do the same for the toppings. Divide the kale, corn, and black beans into 4 portions and put on top of the sweet potatoes. Do the same with the tomatoes, red onions, and pumpkin seeds. Complete the meal with 1 cup of dressing.
