Day 22.
Weekly Meal Prep
Author | Caroline Dillabaugh
In my opinion there is nothing better than having a stocked fridge ready to take on the week. Rather than a full meal prep situation, I like to prep a few key ingredients to set me up for success. Thursday me often doesn't want what Sunday me has planned, so this allows me to mix and match based on what I'm feeling.
I like to start every week with the below items ready to roll in my fridge/panty:
a cooked protein
a cooked grain
a sauce or dressing
overnight oats or baked oats
prepped veggies to snack on
prepped/washed fruit to grab
homemade granola, granola bars or oat bites
From there, I'll grab ingredients for a few dinners that sound good and decide what to eat every day. I love the blog Ambitious Kitchen for easy, healthy and interesting dinner options if you're looking for some inspiration! The New York Times cooking subscription is also worth every penny as a resource for amazing recipes.
