Meal Prep

People often ask me about what I eat and how I prepare my food.  When you're eating six times a day you need to put in some time preparing or you simple won't follow the plan.  I like to take one day a week to cook up a bunch of food and separate it into meals.  Here is what a typical meal prep day looks like at my house...

Baked red potatoes

 Baked sweet potatoes

 

 Fried (with non-stick spray) mixed veggies

 Steamed veggies

 Grilled chicken

 Ground turkey

 Grilled steak

 I have a large rice cooker and make a huge pot of brown rice.  Then comes the measuring.  Everything is carefully measured and labeled for the week!

 Also, my life would not be complete without G Hughes Sugar Free BBQ sauce! 

I also like to use Mrs. Dash and other seasonings to spice up my food.  Cinnamon, cumin, curry, and chipotle seasoning to name a few.  Now I'm ready for the week and don't have to worry about skipping meals or eating off my plan because everything is ready to go!  No excuses!  Keep it simple, but take the time.  You'll be glad you did!
