Chopped Rainbow Salad Bowls with Peanut Sauce
Make good use of crunchy and colorful seasonal produce in these meal-prep-friendly vegetable bowls. With just 30 minutes of prep, you get four healthy lunches that are ready to grab-and-go. We use bulgur, which cooks faster and is higher in fiber than brown rice, but you could swap in quinoa (or any hearty whole grain). Feel free to add chopped cooked chicken, shrimp or tofu for extra protein.

Tips
Tip: Bulgur is a quick-cooking whole grain made by parboiling, drying and grinding or cracking wheat berries. To cook bulgur, combine 1 cup bulgur and 1 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until the bulgur is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 10 to 15 minutes. (Makes 2 cups.)
To make ahead: Refrigerate for up to 4 days.
