WEEKLY MEAL PREP IDEAS?

Wonder_Whit · January 2017

Hi everyone! I am looking for some weekly meal prep ideas that I can prepare on Sundays and have ready for the week. What are some of your absolute favorites?

This week I did grilled chicken, sauteed green, yellow, orange, and red bell peppers, sauteed sweet onions, rainbow quinoa, black beans, and sweet corn & it wasn't too bad. Topped the chicken with a tiny bit of mango salsa.

I get pretty bored with standard grilled chicken recipes, so the more creative the better in my book!

Do you have Pinterest? There are some great suggestions on there. very easy to have a variation of foods and still stick to your calorie allowance. also, you can always find a recipe you have made that you liked

Pinterest is fantastic. I always forget about my account! I will definitely start utilizing it more! Thanks for the tip!

Check out the Domestic Geek on YouTube she has lots of great meal prep videos. https://www.youtube.com/embed/videoseries?list=PLziprGSUFGYRTyyekMqcBiYsTJCwR6Q3X

Also the Fit Couple Cooks has great meal prep videos too.

I make a lot of chicken to use in salads, soup, BBQ pulled chicken, chicken salad, in wraps, tacos, on and on. I make a big pot of veggie soup, hummus and veggies, mason jar salads, cheese nut and dried fruit snacks, yogurt parfaits, baked oatmeal muffins. soupspiceeverythingnice.blogspot.com/2015/09/recycle-tip-fruit-cups-mason-jars.html

Do you have a slow cooker? If so, these are my two favorite recipes for meals for the week. Both refrigerate and freeze well- I love them!

Chickpea and vegetable coconut curry soup (makes about 6 servings): http://www.thekitchn.com/slow-cooker-recipe-curried-vegetable-and-chickpea-stew-67520

Chicken stew - tons of different ways to flavor this one so it doesn't get old!

Chili! I put lots of vegetables, and lean beef or turkey. I also like to do a chicken vegetable soup all homemade so it's not too high in sodium. I don't like vegetables pre cooked so I chop everything up for the week and put them in bags in the fridge. Super easy to pull them out and stir fry or steam them...no cutting needed. I also do crock pot shredded chicken and put it in the fridges for the week. Easy to pull out and add different seasoning (taco, BBQ sauce, Italian, whatever).

This is vegan so you could easily swap out some of the starch for protein. 5 full days of food for $23 and 2 menus for variety!
