Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F or 190 degree C.
On a lined baking sheet toss sweet potato cubes, coconut oil and salt and lay flat and roast in over for about 30 minutes until fork tender. Set aside.
In the meantime, add olive oil to pan and over medium heat add garlic ginger and chili peppers and fry just until aromatic. Do not let the garlic burn. Next add the cauliflower rice in a pan and season with salt to taste and stir fry until tender and slightly golden brown. Set aside
Add olive oil to a pan and add garlic and fresh spinach and stir fry until just wilted. Season to taste. Drain any excess moisture from pan and set aside.
Assemble your whole30 lunches- In a glass jar or glass lunchbox container suitable for reheating add a layer of your roasted sweet potato, then top with a layer of your stir-fried cauliflower rice and then top off with a layer of garlicky spinach. Cover and seal and repeat with the other jars of lunch box containers. This should make you 3 medium lunches. Store in sealed containers in the refrigerator and bring to work or school to enjoy. Just heat and enjoy!

Notes

You will need to pack your Whole30 Vegan Lunches in a glass container that is sealable that you can heat up at work or school. There are many of these out on the market today or you can go old school like us and just pack in a canning jar with lid.

Of course, don’t forget to remove the lids before microwaving at work/school.

I only like to keep 3 meals ahead in the refrigerator and freeze the rest for food safety precautions. Another option is to heat everything up before you leave for work and pack in a thermos.
