Tips To Kick Weekly Meal Planning Up A Notch

Carve Out Prep Time

Meal planning does seem overwhelming, especially if you are one of the many individuals who leads a busy life. But the good news is you can cook nutritious and delicious meals every night, even if you are busy! The way to do this is as simple as carving out a chunk of time for meal prep. The most common day for this is Sunday, where most individuals have some downtime. Use this time to chop vegetables, slice chicken, and prepare other necessary components. You can store what you prep in the fridge if you will be using it quite soon or in the freezer if you don’t need it for a few days. Then when the time comes to cook the meal, all you need to do is throw the ingredients together in a pan, into the oven, in a slow cooker or however, you need to cook them and get the meal ready!

Overall, this will take the same amount of time, but shifting meal prepping to when you do have time makes a significant difference. Try it out, you’ll see!
