All the healthy meal prep recipes you need to make your busy week easier! Salads, bowls, soups, sandwiches and more, ready!
Is there a better feeling than having food prepped and ready for a busy week? Healthy salads in containers, full meals stacked in the fridge for easy lunches and dinners, burritos and sandwiches packed in the freezer when you need them… I’m telling you, nothing makes me feel better. ready for life
Some of these recipes are perfect for a Sunday prep session to whip up for the week ahead (think salads, roasted veggies, and chicken), while others are great for once-a-month hauls in the freezer (hello, frozen burritos and sandwiches!). A little work now, and the future will take care of you.
Some of my favorites to highlight:
- Breakfast Sandwiches to prepare lunch: It’s so easy to prepare and assemble. I like to grab one on my way out the door in the morning!
- Sesame Noodle Bowls: Cook your chicken, mix the sauce and divide everything into the bowls with the noodles. No need to reheat!
- Super delicious chicken salad: I love making a big batch during the week and then having it ready to eat on sandwiches, as a lettuce wrap, or as a snack on crackers.
- Roasted vegetables grains: Healthy and so much flavor! You roast your vegetables and cook your rice, and then make bowls of dressing on the side.
We hope you find a new favorite meal prep!
