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 chicken mole recipe on the stovetop since this will take the longest to cook.
2. Next, cook the honey sesame chicken recipe in the Air Fryer.
3. Then, grill the steak on the stove top. After the steak cooks, let it rest before slicing.
4. Afterward, prepare the ground beef for the lettuce wraps.
5. Finally, prepare the breakfast items.
6. 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 ground beef and chicken bites can be reheated in the microwave. Serve the lettuce wraps and bell peppers chilled
• Dinner: Both meals can be reheated in the microwave

Extra Flavors and Substitutions

• Eggs: Enjoy with sliced avocados or fresh fruit
• Quesadillas: If you don’t want bananas, you can use sliced strawberries
• Chicken: You can use your choice cut of chicken.
• Tortillas: You can also use flour tortillas or lettuce wraps for a low carb option
• 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
