23 of the BEST Meal Prep Recipes for breakfast, lunch or dinner with a few dessert recipes snuck in there! Easy recipes to prepare for the week that are guaranteed to keep you on track.
Guys, the past couple of weeks have been a crash course again at having a newborn. I got through the first child, and remember the first 6 months being brutal. But then after those 6 months, you finally feel like your head is coming out of the water and you’re back to yourself again. Well, I’m definitely going through that right now.
Which means every chance I get to “feel normal” I try to take advantage of. Things like cleaning up around the house, or making a batch of brownies with my son, doing homework, playing a game of SORRY or making a meal. OR TAKING A SHOWER AND BLOW DRYING MY HAIR. Things that seem hard to set time aside for, but once I do them I feel like myself again.
These Meal Prep Recipes are a great way to help you prepare for the week, to keep things easy and leave you with delicious meals to devour. But most of all they are going to help you feel better about yourself, the things you are putting in your body and that you’re staying on track. Bon Appetit friends! I hope you enjoy!
