Earlier this week, I filmed a short video (I think it was a hair over 4 minutes) on how to cut meal prepping and shopping time by 60-70% for my coaching clients.
For one thing, meal prepping doesn't have to include a laundry list of ingredients.
1/4th cup of that,
1/3rd cup of this, 1/2 cup of that...
... next thing you know, you have a shopping list with 45 items.
No, that's not overwhelming at all. Haha.
Here's a few "shortcuts" to make your life
easier...
Proteins:
- Rotisserie chicken
- Tuna in packets
- Pre-cooked/grilled meats in the frozen section
- Protein bars (I personally like Quest and FitCrunch)
Carbohydrates:
- Minute Rice (this is done in like... a minute. C'mon, I'm hilarious)
- "Steamables" potatoes
Veggies
- Frozen veggies or veggie medley
- Ready-to-eat / pre-washed salad/greens (just add any dressing you like)
So when you're in a "bind", have 1-2 "go-tos" so you don't fold and end up ordering a pizza because you're tired... unless it's pizza night :)
See ya,

PS - If you think you would benefit from the weekly meal planner and simple hack to slash meal prep/shopping by 60-70% that I shared with my clients this week...
