The meal plans are designed to serve one person and account for 4 days. This is so that you can enjoy it at it’s best quality and also allows room for flexibility just in case you get takeout or eat out during the week.

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

  1. First, prepare the Pineapple Beef Teriyaki in the Instant Pot since this will take the longest..
  2. Next, prep all the items that require the oven such as the sweet potato toast, sweet potato egg fritta, and carrot muffin bar.
  3. Then, prepare all the items that require the stove top such as the pan fried pork chops, sauteed red cabbage, and shrimp.
  4. 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: Both meals can be reheated in the microwave.
  • Lunch: The shrimp salad can be served chilled. The sweet potato BLT can be reheated in the toaster or air fryer, while the salad can be served chilled.
  • Dinner: Both meals can be reheated in the microwave

Extra Flavors and Substitutions

  • Egg Frittata: Serve with sliced avocado
  • Pineapple Carrot Muffin Bar: Serve with a side of yogurt
  • Dressing: Serve with a vinaigrette
  • Beef: Feel free to use your choice cut of beef
  • 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.
  • Fruit: Use leftover fruit in smoothies, on top of yogurt, or with your cereal
  • Veggies: Freeze any leftover veggies for later use. Use leftover herbs in omelets or other dishes for the weekend
