15 Minute Chorizo, Lentils & Beetroot Salad. Perfect meal-prep bowl for lunches on the go. For me personally, Sunday is Meal Prep Day! I prep my lunches for 3 days choosing a meal prep bowl, then have an easy wrap or leftovers for Thursday-Friday. Set yourself up for a great week of staying on track and get meal prepping these gorgeous bowls.

Serves: 2 Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 red onion, halved and sliced
190g pack mini cooking chorizo sausages, halved lengthways
250g pack ready-to-eat Puy lentils
200g small cooked beetroot (not in vinegar), cut into wedges
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar (or use balsamic - but a little less)
large pack rocket or other salad

Method

Heat a large pan, add a drop of the olive oil, and cook the onion and chorizo for a few mins until starting to colour.
Tip in the lentils with the beetroot wedges, vinegar, remaining oil, some seasoning and 1 tablespoon water.
Cover the pan and heat for 1 min to warm through. Pile into a bowl, toss through the rocket and serve if eating straight away.
If taking to work as lunch, then separate the rocket until just before eating.
