Food Prep Staples:
- Hard boiled eggs. I ALWAYS have these on hand.
- Muffins
- Hummus (this is a new one)
- Chopped vegetables (if they're prepped, there is no reason not to eat them)
Other Food Prep:
- Bulk lunches - whether it's soup, a rice or quinoa dish etc, this is always helpful! Separating it into containers for lunch everyday makes it SO easy to bring lunch to work rather than buying something. It's also great to have things to freeze for later on when you don't have time to prep.
- Prep for dinners later in the week - if I have time on Sunday to chop vegetables for Tuesday's dinner, it makes a big difference later in the week.
- Healthy treats! This is helpful if you have a sweet tooth and you need help staying on track. If you need something sweet, may as well make it healthy!
I snapped a few pictures of some prepped food in my fridge this morning...
Hard boiled eggs
What stops you from prepping?
Question my love, how do you store your veggies to keep them fresh? I found that I have cut up celery or carrots but they are seeming to be in a quite sad form by even Tuesday. I have learned how to properly wash berries and such to make em last but was hoping you would have some suggestions and thought others could benefit as well :)
ReplyDeleteStore them in water!! This is so clutch for carrots and celery. I use lock and lock containers too, which are awesome for keeping things fresh. I only store veggies in them. I have this other container that are for vegetables too that have vents that you open and close depending on the vegetable.
