Chef's Note

These breakfast bowls are perfect for meal prep! Make the bean mixture and rice ahead of time, store in separate containers, and just prepare fresh eggs in the morning. You can also wrap assembled bowls (without avocado) in foil and reheat in a 350°F oven for 15 minutes for a quick weekday breakfast.
