Sheet Pan Burrito Bowl [Meal Prep!]

Meal prep for the week with this easy and healthy sheet pan burrito bowl recipe! It’s made with classic Mexican spices and is done in 30 minutes.

It’s no secret we’re obsessed with Taco Tuesday. We could eat Mexican daily and never get sick of it. We especially love Mexican meals that are easy and healthy👏🏻. So basically this sheet pan burrito bowl checks all our boxes.

If you love easy, healthy taco-inspired meals, then you’re going to love this recipe too!

It’s made with fresh veggies, rice and Al Fresco Mild Mexican Style Dinner Sausage. The sausage includes Hatch chiles and classic Mexican spices to enhance the taco flavors in this burrito bowl. It makes it even easier to cook because the sausage is pre-cooked!

Pro tip: we love to quickly fry it on the stovetop with veggies for a simple lunch or breakfast too!

Are burrito bowls healthy?

It all depends on whether it’s “healthy” based on your standards and what’s included in the recipe.

I would definitely classify this as healthy because it’s gluten free, dairy free, anti-inflammatory and filled with quality protein, veggies and carbs.

Can you reheat a burrito bowl?

This healthy burrito bowl reheats really well which makes it great for meal prep. If you don’t eat it right away, divide it into separate glass meal prep containers . Then when you’re ready to eat them, throw them in the microwave until warm.

Can you eat burrito bowls cold? Sure you can! You don’t have to warm it up if you don’t have access to a microwave, but I personally like it better warm.

How to make a burrito bowl:

Start by prepping your Mexican spices. Mix all of the spices in a small bowl and set aside. Next, cut all your ingredients! You’ll need to cut off the stems and seeds of 3 peppers and cut into 1 inch chunks then slice 1 yellow onion and the chicken sausage.

Next, Add it all to a VERY large sheet pan. Sprinkle with half the spice mixture and bake at 425°F for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through. Add the pre-cooked rice and the rest of the spices, toss again to coat and cook for another 5 minutes.

Serve right away or store for meal prep!
