Chili, broccoli, turkey breast, chick-peas...

    Yes, I meal prep for the week on Sundays too. This week (and most weeks, really) is a green salad, chili, roasted Rotel chicken, chicken tacos, and Mac n cheese, and frozen veggies added to the evening meal. Next week it might be a beef roast or pork roast instead of chicken, but it doesn’t vary too much.

    I tend to stretch it out a bit and do carb prep on Saturday and protein on Sunday... My dryer is on the same circuit as my oven and I can't run them both at the same time, so I have to pace myself between washing workout clothes and prepping food. :D

    That looks great. My meal prep is just ensuring I go shopping for the essentials...eggs, yogurt, lean meat, fruit, etc.

    Looks great! When I had to commute to work, on Sundays I'd often make 4 chicken, potato, and broccoli meals, and 4 Thai Tandoori Chicken, rice, and peas meals. On Fridays I'd get takeout for lunch and save half for dinner.

    I also made hard boiled eggs for snacks and kept carrots and cheese or hummus in the frig at work, and nuts in my desk.

    These days I work from home. Now that it's colder, I'll prep something and thrown it in the slow cooker at lunch time and it will be ready for dinner.

    I made a kale-based masala curry with sweet potato, green beans, tomato, and chicken. It made 3 servings, so I'll have to make something else with the rest of the kale.

    Bolognese with spaghetti squash, black beans & taco meat with salad fixings, and snack boxes with dehydrated bananas, pistachios, rice cakes, roasted chickpeas, and almonds to keep the munchies away!

    I don't meal prep but I do plan what meals I'm going to cook for the week for grocery shopping purposes. This week includes yassa chicken with fonio, chana masala, dal, and maybe carrot soup. I also have some leftovers from late last week to finish eating.
