Meal Prep Plan - Week 9

Meal Prep Plan - Week 9

You don’t need elaborate or expensive meals to meet your nutrition goals each week. When you're trying to lose or maintain your weight, the right meal prep plan should feature protein-based meals made with fresh foods and filled with vitamins and minerals.

The meals featured in all of my prep plans will keep you full and satisfied — without that uncomfortable heavy feeling. They're simple enough for anyone to prepare and have plenty of variation to keep your taste buds happy all week.

Healthy eating should never be boring or bland. With these options, even the biggest foodies will be thrilled! Bon appetit, and feel free to share these recipes with family and friends.

Without further adieu, here's this week's Time Saving Tip of the Week:

Make smoothie bags ahead of time! Add all the measured fruit and veggie ingredients for your smoothie into a zip lock bag and freeze. Add measured amounts of dry ingredients like seeds and protein powder into another container. This will cut down on smoothie-making time!
