MrsEdge928

Hi y'all! I'm curious to know what food you guys prep to prepare you for the week and keep you on track! Or if there is already a thread about this please direct me to it.
I would like to start doing this and would like to know what foods keep well and what don't!
thanks

Hi!!!

I am in my 4th week of meal prepping and I love it and I am still learning. There are a few great you tube videos for meal prepping. I do not prep for breakfast since I have the time to toast an English Muffin and boil eggs. I think you may find that you have "favorite" meals that you prefer. Some of the items I prep:

*Lunch:
chicken salad
tuna salad
Beef vegetable soup (homemade)
Grilled Chicken Salad


*Dinner Protein:
Chicken Fajitas with (brown rice, romaine lettuce leaf as wrap, fresh salsa, peppers)
Chicken breast
Steak & Shrimp
Turkey breast
Turkey meatloaf
Salmon
Fish you prefer

*Dinner Sides
Sweet Potatoes (I generally eat 1/2)
Baked potato (I generally eat 1/2)
brown rice
Roasted Veggies (yellow squash, zucchini, green, red peppers, and onions)
salad (place paper towel in container to absorb water to keep salad crisp)
any veggies you prefer
