My Weekly Meal Prep Routine

My weekly meal prep routine- showing you guys how I actually meal prep! I don't do big meal prep sessions these days, but break it up into small 30 minute sessions over 1-2 days. Small meal prep sessions really add up and make a huge difference!

MY WEEKLY MEAL PREP ROUTINE INCLUDES:
--------------------------------------------------------
• cooking a big batch of breakfasts
• preparing 1-2 snack recipes, and generally making sure we have lots of healthy fruit and vegetable options
• cooking 4 days of lunches ahead
• I do not meal prep our dinners, but occasionally will pre-chop salads or sides

WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF YOUR FAMILY?
--------------------------------------------------
• For simplicity I just showed 4 portions of each meal, but often I will double up and make 8 portions

• These days we've been enjoying dinner leftovers for lunches fairly often so we are eating a couple of portions of Honey Sesame Chicken Lunch Bowls each and the rest of the week it will be leftovers for us!

• I will occasionally do a second mini-prep session mid-week to make more steel cut oats and (if needed) snacks.
