Meal Prep Plan - Week 1

by Dr. Kellyann
Table of Contents

    Whether you're a professional who needs to save time for other activities, a mom who doesn't want to sacrifice taste for nutrition, or just someone looking to optimize your health, meal prep is a foolproof way to do it. Going grocery shopping once a week and cooking in batches will not only save you time and money in the long run; it will also leave you more satisfied and full after every meal. But that doesn't mean you can't eat good food – quite the contrary! 

    These low-carb, high-protein recipes are perfect for busy professionals, moms, or anyone looking to maximize their health (and flavor palate) without breaking the bank. You can improve your diet, shed excess pounds, and give your health a boost without any fancy cookbooks or kitchen appliances needed! 

    So, without further ado, here is my Time Saving Tip of the Week:

    Always pick three protein staples per week. This weekly menu uses eggs, ground turkey, and chicken as the weekly staples.
