Easy Meal Prep

Hi Everyone!

Today, I am sharing an easy meal prep idea with you. My husband and I have been working on eating the healthiest that we can, while also trying to find ways to make it easy. I think that making healthy eating easy is one of the best things we can do for ourselves. How many times have you just been too hungry to cook so you either grabbed an unhealthy snack or got some fast food? I know that I am guilty of doing this at times. 

Last week, I made dinners for five nights on Sunday. I put together some simple chicken and rice bowls. I baked seven chicken breasts (olive oil and lemon pepper seasoned), four cups of rice (brown, white, or jasmine), a bundle of asparagus, a can of green beans, and two crowns of broccoli. I cut up the chicken into bite sized pieces. I separated the rice and chicken evenly into ten meal prep containers into the 2 cup side. I then added vegetables to the 1 cup side. I like to switch it up each night or else I risk getting sick of eating the same thing. This way I can have a different vegetable each night. Another way I switch it up each night is eating my chicken with something different. I’ve done teriyaki sauce, ranch, salsa, lemon juice/ lemon pepper, and thousand island. This way it may be the same thing but it tastes different.

These are the containers that I like to use.
