Prepping is easy when you know how. Meals are easy if you know the formula. Which is….
PROTIEN+CARB+VEGTABLES= MEAL
Examples of the best proteins you can have are Chicken breasts, Ground Turkey, Salmon, Steak, Shrimp, Tuna
Carbs: Sweet potatoes, potatoes, rice, couscous
Vegetables: Butternut squash, zucchini, squash, broccoli.
Once you have the formula you can then focus on foods you like to eat and the benefits of eating those foods. Finding foods that are good for you and enjoyable are the best. My go-to for the season, when I’m busy and don’t have time to do anything is a few simple, easy recipes.
Butternut Squash– Chopping up the squash in 5 parts and then roast it on high for 45 minutes at around 440 degrees. This can be done when you’re doing laundry, fixing your hair, getting ready in the morning, etc. Drizzling salt, pepper, and olive oil, and then when it’s halfway cooked drizzling honey makes all the difference.
Sweet Potatoes are one of the best carbs you can have. If you’re like me anything sweet goes, so if you don’t know what to have for a carb then, chop up a few sweet potatoes, put them in the air fryer with some olive oil spray, some salt, and pepper and you’re good to go. You have the best complex carb there is…. high in antioxidants, supports healthy vision, enhances brain functions, and supports your brain. What, more could u want?
Turkey, especially ground turkey is such a great staple in everyone’s diet. It is high in protein which is great to accomplish your fitness goals and not only that but with the addition of turmeric, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper it could be the perfect holiday meat. Not only is it great tasting but it is easy to prep, takes overall 20 minutes and all you do Is combine all the ingredients and then let it simmer.
Meal prepping shouldn’t be hard to do if you take a short amount of time and do it. With some inspiration and some grocery shopping, it can be so easy to get ahead of your week and make your life slightly easier.
