Plant-based meat has blossomed in recent years, with improved taste and texture over what you might have tried years ago. Here, frozen plant-based crumbles cook with salsa for an easy plant-based protein anchor to this portable vegan lunch. Convenient frozen precooked brown rice helps the meal come together quickly; you could also use pouched shelf-stable brown rice and decrease the microwave time to 1½ minutes. Coleslaw blend helps save even more time, saving you the trouble of prepping cabbage and carrots yourself.
