It’s amazing to think back on how long it took for me to come around to the meal prep game.
. My biggest problem was that I overcomplicated things. . I’d look for 3 or 4 different recipes and try to make everything at once, which led to chaos in the kitchen, over 6 hours of hard work, frustration and sometimes even giving up on it part way through. . Keeping it simple is the way to go, and it’s helped me be more consistent (which equals better results) and that’s benefited my clients as well! . Here are a few tips I wanted to share that might take some of the “complicated” things that may be keeping you from getting prepared ahead for your week: . 1. Opt for 3 lean proteins maximum, and cook them with basic seasoning so you can add variety during the week. I typically season my meats with Oh My Spice! Maui Onion, garlic powder and a little pink Himalayan salt, it’s fairly universal and goes great with everything! . 2. Pick one macro friendly recipe to make for breakfast. I love egg muffins or egg bakes to pack a whole breakfast in one dish, it’s an easy way to make the most of your oven with other foods being cooked at the same time. . 3. Don’t be afraid of frozen vegetables! I use frozen broccoli and green beans religiously...they are a major time saver and you won’t have to be concerned with whatever you don’t use spoiling! . 4. When making protein pancakes, slightly under cook them so when you re-heat them, they won’t be dried out! (Super easy recipe, 2 cups of Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes Buttermilk pancake and waffle mix, 2 scoops Level-1 Ice Cream Sandwich and 2 cups water, voila for ~24 fluffy breakfast pillows of awesome 🥞). . Incorporating these practices has made meal prepping easy, without being boring or feeling like I’m eating the same thing every single day! . It’s an amazing tool, and it’s so important to keep it simple, the KISS principle applies to everything lol . Did you meal prep anything for the week? I’d love to hear what’s on your menu for the week! . . . . 🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱🍱 #mealprep #healthyfoodchoices #teamwonderfullyfit #wonderfullyfitmom #strongbodies #preparerowin #fatloss #musclebuilding #wellnessjourney
