Sunday prep · 40 min
- Cook 2 cups of dry rice. Keep 1½ cups aside for Monday's fried rice.
- Bake the potatoes at 425°F for 45 minutes (or microwave 8–10 minutes).
- Cook the chickpea pasta; toss with lemon, garlic, olive oil and chickpeas.
- Layer the taco salad jar dressing-first, lettuce last, so it stays crunchy.
