Meal prep

What are some good healthy foods you include in your meal prep? It's my first week doing it so I would like to hear what your favorites are! Thanks in advance!

Protein fav's are chicken, lean top beef, eggs (I steam several at a time). I do avacado salads-some tomatoe red onion and basil thrown in and it's delicious. For breakfast I usually stick to maybe a handful of walnuts or the boiled eggs with a couple fruits. Lunch would be my protein then the veggies such as steamed aspargus or the avacodo salad. Dinner would be another protein plus veggies. Buy a steamer. I steam veggies to shrimp in it and stay around 1200-1400 calories. I found a really good bar, it's atkins trail bars. About 160 calories lots of fiber and protein and I keep one on me all the time just incase I get so hungry I might get something bad out to eat. I've also done a wheat wrap with refried beans and some jalapenos.

i stir fry a lot. ginger and garlic and some kind of meat are the base. and then any-attractive-veggies for the variety.

you need soy sauce, of course. and i'm not proud so i usually dredge the meat in cornflour. i'm a bit of a wok snob because i got lucky with mine, but i think you can theoretically stir fry in a flat frying pan too.

Stir frys sound good. Never thought of those.
