Already going through my first week and did the most basic meal prep to try it out. Already researching for the next round of my lunch meal prep.

Looks good! But if I may offer some unsolicited advice…since these will be reheated I’d recommend some sort of sauce for your rice so that it won’t dry out in the microwave. Speaking only from my experience here, after day 3 the leftover rice can get a little weird when reheated. Even just a little splash of water in it can help if you’re not looking to add any new flavors/calories/more steps to it. (After day 3 just like a tablespoon of water in the rice right before it goes in the microwave, possibly keeping the lid loose over it while heating to keep some moisture in) but I’d say you’re off to a great start with a healthy a cost effective prep! 👏

If this meal starts to get boring by the end of the week, let me recommend getting different sauces that are versatile that you can throw on top. Whether it be hot sauce, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, salsa, whatever floats your boat it’s going to help if the meal start to drag because you’re bored of them.
