This easy Rice and Black Bean Salad is one of my favorite meal prep recipes. This lighter meatless main course is perfect for Meatless Monday.
Is anyone still eating healthy for the New Year?
My New Years resolutions always start to fizzle out after the first week of January, but this year I didn’t even bother to make any resolutions. With a newborn, an extremely active toddler and basically 2 full time jobs, I have my hands full. Luckily, my toddler loves eating healthy, and requests salads quite often.
And whatever my toddler wants to eat I will make. If you have or had young kids, I am sure that you can relate. Getting them to eat is a struggle, so if he suggests something other than candy to eat for dinner, that’s what we’re having.
So this weekend while shopping for the week, he pulls some butter lettuce and salsa from the shelves and tells me to make something with that. This is how this Rice and Black Bean Salad was born.
The perfect meal for Meatless Monday if I do say so myself, this salad is actually better the next day. Such a great recipe to bring with you in your lunchbox, or as meal prep on busy days.
