Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Massage the bag of potatoes to separate the hash brown pieces. Spread the frozen hash browns on the parchment paper. Season with salt and pepper. Bake for about 45 minutes.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Cook the scrambled eggs and set aside.
Drain and rinse black beans. Pat dry. Set aside.
Chop spinach, chop green onions and chop cilantro. Keep separate. Pat dry. Set aside.
Once the hash browns are cooked, remove them from the oven. Mix in half of the green onions and half of the cilantro. Let cool.
Divide ingredients evenly into your food storage containers. Assemble your layers in the following order: hash brown mixture, scrambled eggs, spinach, black beans, cheese, green onions and cilantro.
Cover and refrigerate for up to three days.
To serve: Add desired amount of taco sauce over your bowl and heat in the microwave for 1 ½ minute to 2 minutes. Give it a stir, then enjoy!
Notes
Keeping moisture to a minimum will help keep these bowls fresher longer, so I prefer to use pre-washed ready-to-eat bagged spinach because it's much drier than I'm able to get my freshly washed spinach at home.Make it Vegan: Leave out the eggs and swap the cheese for vegan cheese. Add meat if you don't want it to be vegetarian! Bacon, sausage, or any other kind of meat would work. Swap out the beans to add some variety. Prep this for 3 days at a time.
