Set Your Pace
- If you’re a beginner at meal prep: Be prepared to set aside 2-3 hours. Once mise en place is complete, all of these recipes can be completed one by one.
- If you’re a meal prep pro, use the sequenced steps below: These steps give you the flexibility to cook items simultaneously in a sequence of events.
- Be sure to set timers and check on food items to avoid overcooking. Sequencing will save you time and meal prep can be done in 1-2 hours.
Meal Prep Run Down
- First, pre-heat the oven to 400F.
- Next, prepare the items that require the oven such as the hoisin glazed chicken with snap peas.
- Place the chicken and snow peas in the baking dishes and start baking them in the oven. Then, start preparing the Air Fryer Chicken wings and also start cooking them in the Air Fryer.
- Meanwhile, prepare the items on the stovetop such as grilled steak, grilled peanut butter chicken, and the peanut butter quesadillas.
- Finally, assemble the English muffin fruit pizza.
- When everything is finished cooking, plate everything up in containers, and let them cool before refrigerating.
If you’re sequencing your meal prep, be sure to keep an eye on everything! Make sure food is kept refrigerated under 40F degrees until ready to eat.
Assembly Tips
- Evenly divide meals according to the serving size
- Let all items cool before placing them in the refrigerator
- Keep all items refrigerated under 40F until ready to eat or reheat
- Breakfast: The peanut butter quesadilla can be reheated in the microwave, while the English muffin fruit pizza can be served chilled
- Lunch: The grilled steak can be reheated in the oven, while the lettuce wraps can be served chilled. The chicken can be reheated in the microwave, while the coleslaw can be served chilled. Wait to slice the avocado until you are ready to eat the meal to prevent it from browning too early
- Dinner: Both meals can be reheated in the microwave, serve the spring mix salad chilled
Extra Flavors and Substitutions
- Peanut Butter: Feel free to use any other kind of nut butter such as cashew or almond butter
- Lettuce Wraps: If you can’t lettuce wraps, you can serve the grilled steak on top of spring mix
- Parsnips: If you can’t find parsnips, you can use regular potatoes or sweet potatoes
- Supplement meals with additional snacks such as fresh veggies and fruit for additional daily caloric needs. You can use lime/lemon and olive oil in place of salad dressing
Extra Leftover Ingredients Not Used
- Protein: Freeze any uncooked meats and save for a later recipe, or you can cook the full amount, and freeze the portion that you do not eat, and save for later use.
- Veggies: Freeze any leftover veggies for later use. Use leftover herbs in omelets or other dishes for the weekend
