Tip of the Day: Meal prep is a must, especially for us busy bees! When I first began eating healthier, I was incredibly intimidated by meal prepping. I had no idea how to do it and I wasn’t exactly enthused about eating reheated meals. So, I came up with an quick and efficient meal prep that allows for flexibility and helps eliminate grabbing junk out of convenience. When we have healthy meals prepped and ready, the temptation for less healthy options significantly decreases! Join me in my kitchen as I go through a meal prep!
VIDEO: How To: Meal Prep Quickly & Efficiently
It’s been far too long since my last YouTube video, and I hope to do them more regularly. Be sure to let me know whatever you’d like to see next 🙂
VIDEO SUMMARY:

STEP 1: Plan – I use Eat Your Way Lean & the Guilt Free Food Guide recipe sections as if they were a menu. I select meals 1-5 and write down any necessary items I need at the grocery store. Planning the meals ahead of time leads to a more efficient shop!

STEP 2: Grocery shop – I always try to keep this step fun for an enjoyable meal prep! I’ve been known to invite girlfriends and my family grocery shopping 😉 It’s actually pretty awesome to be productive while getting in girl time! 

STEP 3: Prep – I prep in order of these LG Meal Plan food plate categories: protein, carbohydrate, vegetable, fats. Through a lot of trial and error, I’ve found that order leads to the quickest meal prep. Additionally, baking will be your best friend so you can prepare the next meal while something is cooking in the oven.

STEP 4: Organize into containers – this is where my style differs from most. What works best for me is to place each item into a container (i.e.: container of salmon, container of greek salad. Then, each evening, I prepare the next day’s meals by using some of my pre-made food and then organize a container for each meal. When there is a lot of meal prepped food, this style allows you to keep from eating the exact same meal day after day. For instance, one night I may pair the salmon with avocado salsa and a side of rice while the next night I may organize a M3 container with salmon and greek pasta salad. Flexibility is what works best for my personal meal prep style!

    Purchases are separated into goods and services. Then there are goods that cost more because of the additional service going towards the final product.
    Let's take a look at four grocery delivery items that would fall into this category.

    Organic groceries can be affordable, which means that they were processed using methods that are environmentally sound. These products are also free of artificial
    chemicals and genetically modified organisms. With more people turning to organic food, you may find yourself wanting to try it out the next time you get grocery
    delivery.

    Online grocery supermarkets provides you with all the food items like rice, vegetables, oil, milk, pulses, etc. These stores also provide all the household products that one need in their day to day life. You can even get all the healthy baby care beverages and baby care products of good and verified brands. Online grocery
    shopping is very beneficial for an individual.
