Join Me For Some Sweet Meal Prepping!

Hi You!

Hope you had a great 4th! I've decided to do something different this week.

I want to start giving you some batch cooking and meal prep ideas. A lot of these ideas are pretty simple. We just don't always think of it.

I heard a statistic the other day that shocked me. A third of the money we spend on food goes into the garbage! That's right, we are wasting a ton of food.

I'm very guilty of this myself. Just last week I threw away a whole zucchini!

I made a promise to myself I would stop doing this. Which means I need to plan, prep, and batch!

This week I have all these sweet potatoes sitting on the counter and before they start to go bad I decided to take action.

I peeled, chopped, seasoned them and stuck them in the freezer. I also took one batch and I'm baking them right now to throw on top of a salad later...I'll take pics!

I'll give you my recipe but remember if you don't like the seasoning I use, then change it up!

    Things like chili, soups, burrito fillings, or even the whole burrito! When I do the soups I'll do a base and then when I'm cooking it add the pasta, rice, or quinoa. Otherwise, it gets mushy.

  2. Meal Prepping – What exactly do I mean by this? My personal definition of meal prep is preparing a bunch of veggies and precooking some food to easily put meals together when you lack time or motivation. For example, when I was getting my weekly CSA(community supported agriculture) box AKA big box of veggies, I would wash and prep all of it when I got it. This increased the likelihood of me eating it and not wasting it. We are all familiar with that unrecognizable plastic bag in the fridge that smells super funky! I'm so guilty of this....
