Does the month of May always feel this hectic as the school year is coming to an end? I usually have a quick lunch break between clients and rely on leftovers or grab-and-go meals from Snap Kitchen in Austin. Typically, I take a few meal prep shortcuts. For example, I used rotisserie chicken for our kid’s lunches, bbq baked potatoes, and chicken pot pie. I have snacks built into the day since I’m working out regularly, training clients, keeping up with two kids, and breastfeeding. Typically, I depend on leftovers for dinner. This week I plan to cook more.
On Sunday, I cook a big batch of hard-boiled eggs and slice up vegetables and fruit. If it’s time for a snack and these items aren’t prepared, I go straight for carbs or sugar and feel sluggish the rest of the day. Tossing in a quick source of protein, some healthy fats, and items that add volume (fruit and veggies) leave me feeling way more fulfilled.
I linked a few recipes below that we are trying this week. I hope this makes your meal planning easier!
