Calling Shift Workers

i feel your pain, i shift work too. I generally spend my days off preparing for my work days, creating snack bags and meals.

Some of my go to are:

snacks//
natural yoghurt and fruit
cut up fruit bags
crackers and cheese
mixed nuts
hummus and vege sticks
protein bars

meals//
low cal wrap with shredded chicken and salad inside
sandwich
cold pasta salad
cold roast veges with shredded chicken

I work 3rd shift, so not shift work but I do like doing things ahead of time rather than on a daily basis.

I usually will bake a week's worth of boneless/skinless chicken breasts on Sunday. It keeps pretty well in a Tupperware bowl in the fridge. Personally, I like cold chicken so no reheating necessary for me!

I also do this with just about any other type of meat (red meat, fish, pork). Wrapped in tinfoil, I've never had any issues and it helps so that I only have to wash the pan or dish once rather than over and over throughout the week.

I also create Tupperware bowls of fruits and vegetables ahead of time so I can just grab them on my way out the door.

I also like to keep packages of Better Oats on hand at work. They're a quick meal to make and you can use the package as a measuring cup for water.
