Healthy Eating Is Simple When You Prep The Smart Way

How is it possible to throw together delicious meals like these healthy salad bowls in 10 minutes? It’s all about smart meal prep. Not the meal prep you see bodybuilders doing where they cook a week’s worth of food then portion it out into daily containers so they eat the same thing every single day week after week.

Smart meal prep for everyday people with healthy lifestyle goals is more inspired and a lot more flexible. Here’s 3 tips to get you started so you’re healthy eating is easy and enjoyable instead of boring and bland.

The Secret to Smart Meal Prep & Fit Eating for Life!

Prep Foods You Want To Eat Regularly. Foods like grilled chicken, steak or seafood, wild rice or quinoa, raw veggies and fruits, veggie purees or dips. The best time to do this is when you are cooking a no stress meal. Make extra of whatever you know you’ll want later in the week. This means cooking or chopping or pureeing 2-3 more servings and then storing those foods in their own separate containers so you have flexibility to create new meals all week long. Prepped ingredients = no more boring meal repetition. i.e. We made extra roast beets for one dinner and used the extra to puree into an incredible red beet hummus dip that we ate the rest of the week with raw veggies or as a salad bowl topping.

Use Your Time In The Kitchen Efficiently. The biggest issue many of us have with cooking healthy is we view it as a huge endeavor when really it’s just like multitasking your work or your house cleaning or any other daily tasks. For example when blending and drinking up fruit smoothies, take the time to peel extra bananas and mangos and throw them in baggies with berries then freeze for frosty smoothies later in the week. If you’re peeling and chopping apples, pineapples, or oranges, be sure to store them in multi compartment containers that you can shop for other dishes. Most peeled and cut fresh fruit keeps really well for about 5 days and adds that healthy sugar to your meals that your body needs for energy, hydration, and nutrition.

Master A Few Quick Healthy Sauces or Dressings. This tip is a major breakthrough for so many who struggle to eat healthy because health food lacks flavor. The reason restaurant food usually tastes so amazing is the sauces and you can make your own just as delicious and more nutritious. i.e. The spicy peanut sauce we made for our buckwheat noodles with garlic shrimp and veggies only requires 4 ingredients: peanut butter, hoisin sauce, sriracha and lime juice plus a splash of water. Took less than a minute and transformed our shrimp pasta into a take out quality meal.

Making nutritious meals for your healthy eating goals can be so simple and even fun! The key is to view this as a skill you are learning on your health and fitness journey.
