Meal prepping is a smart way to plan healthy, stress-free and quick dinners on busy weeknights. This involves preparing items like grains, vegetables and protein ahead of time so that you're ready when you need a meal. Meal prepping can save you time during those precious (sometimes hectic!) post-work hours and help ensure that you're getting nutritious food on the table without any fuss. Let's get started!
Meal prepping is a great way to break the monotony of everyday eating (and it might even help you lose weight). There are a number of different techniques, but all involve planning and organizing your food in advance. Some techniques take a little more effort than others (e.g., chopping or cooking), but the benefits far outweigh the inconvenience.
Cooking food in bulk can be a great way to save time and money.
The best way to save time is to make big batches of recipes (like on the weekends), so that you can freeze or save them for later use.
If meal prep is something you struggle with, try prepping everything in containers. This way, you'll have easy-to-grab healthy meals everywhere you go.
There are a number of things you can keep on hand to make your cooking life easier. Chop up veggies, peel carrots, and roast garlic ahead of time and use these components in recipes later on.
Meal prepping is a great way to save time during busy weeknights. It minimizes waste from rotting food and creates healthy meals, giving you peace of mind in the process. You're less likely to choose unhealthy food when you've got a healthy dinner at home that takes little effort to make.
Meal prepping is one of the simplest ways to make healthier, more manageable food choices that'll help you achieve your health and fitness goals. But is there a downside?
Whilst meal prepping can promote variety and freshness, it is not for those who want a varied diet or refuse to try "grown-up food." Getting kids on board with eating "leftovers" is also a challenge, especially if you're catering for multiple dietary restrictions. To avoid monotony, use different spices, dressings and condiments in your dishes or freeze some of your prepped food to feature in future meals.
