Lentils with hard boiled eggs, tomatoes, avocado, a squeeze of lime juice, cilantro and a few dashes of hot sauce is a really simple meatless lunch I like to make for myself anytime I have cooked lentils (or sometimes I buy them cooked).

How to Make Lentil Bowls for Meal Prep

It’s also an easy dish to meal prep, you can make the eggs and lentils ahead if you’re cooking them yourself, and add the avocado and tomatoes the day you plan to eat it. To make prep even easier, make a batch of hard boiled eggs in your Instant Pot (affiliate link)! Instead Pot Hard Boiled Egg recipe here. If I buy my lentils precooked, they usually already come seasoned with salt, but if you make them yourself, be sure to add salt to them after. If you don’t like spicy food, you can skip the hot sauce, it will still be good! Pre-cooked lentils are usually found in the produce dept by the pre-cut veggies/lettuce or near the non-dairy proteins. They are sold under Trader Joe’s name and Melissa Produce.
