Falafel Salad Meal Prep Bowls


I’m asked often for cold lunch box and cold meal prep ideas, so we’re always working to create new ideas for you!
These types of meals are super convenient when there’s no kitchen available to heat things up.

Simply tuck your meal into a cooler or purse, and enjoy it when you’re ready.
Make this recipe the next one you try! I know you’ll enjoy it so much and your week ahead will be easier since you already know what you’re having for lunch.

This recipe has a lot of delicious and complementary flavors happening thanks to the tahini.

You’re going to ABSOLUTELY LOVE it!

Depending on what produce is in season, feel free to adjust the veggies to your liking and what’s available.

It’s THE BEST during our summer months when juicy tomatoes and crisp cucumbers are bursting from the vines.

Here are some more of our favorite cold lunchbox ideas:

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the tahini with the warm water until smooth. Season with sea salt and pepper to your taste.

To assemble your bowls, divide the chopped veggies equally among 4 meal prep containers.

Sprinkle everything with sesame seeds.
