Meal Prep

OVERWHELMED BY YOUR BUSY SUMMER SCHEDULE AND AS A RESULT YOU ARE ORDERING OUT MORE OFTEN? WE CAN HELP YOU WITH SIMPLE MEAL PREP!

MANY TIMES, AFTER A LONG WEEKEND AWAY, ONE OF THE BEST FEELINGS IS HEADING TO THE GROCERY STORE AND BUYING A LOT OF FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES BECAUSE LET'S BE HONEST, WEEKEND TRIPS CALL FOR LOTS OF DELICIOUS AND SOMETIMES DECADENT FOOD. IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT LIFE IS ABOUT BALANCE! ENJOYING YOURSELF AND ALLOWING YOURSELF TO LIVE IN THE MOMENT IS THE KEY TO A HAPPY LIFE. SO, IF YOU FIND THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TRAVELING FREQUENTLY AND ARE STRUGGLING TO PREP FOR THE WEEK AFTER A WEEKEND TRIP, CHECK OUT A FEW MEAL PREP IDEAS BELOW FOR SOME INSPIRATION.


1. Greek chicken meal prep bowls: this recipe transforms a greek salad into a bowl! It's a simple recipe that calls for brown rice, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, olives and feta cheese if desired.
