What’s the first thing you do after a 5 hour drive home from spending the weekend in Asheville?
Hit the grocery store and stock up on the necessary goods for Sunday night meal prep!
The last thing I want on a Monday morning is NOT to be armed and ready with my meals for the day. Some days I spend upwards of 13 hours at the box. The ease of having my lunch, dinner, pre or post workout meal on the go, ready to consume at all times, is well worth the 90 minutes it takes on Sunday nights to prep. Taking 2 minutes to reheat my lunch or dinner every day is well worth the planning and prepping that I do one time a week!
Here’s what I prepped in under 90 minutes tonight:
6 days worth of Breakfast:
2lbs of Hot Italian Chicken Sausage – cut into small pieces to use in the AM as a supplement to my eggs (#ExtraProtein)
Chopped Red, Green, and yellow peppers
6 Days worth of Meal #2 (my 11am meal)
Albacore Tuna packs
1 cup of chopped cucumbers
6 days worth of lunches:
97% Lean Ground Beef Sliders (3oz each)
+ Steamed in the Bag Sweet Potatoes
+ Sautéed Zucchini
6 Days worth of Post-Workout Dinner (the meal I eat 40-60 minutes after my post-workout shake)
More beef sliders
Couscous (yes, I eat couscous and brown rice to get my daily carb intake fix)
Sautéed green, red, and yellow peppers
Sure, I’ll be eating the same thing all week long. I could just have easily made two or three other meal options for this week, but it doesn’t bother me to eat the same thing 6 days in a row. (I might always have my nails done but I’m not that much of a diva!) I’m 4 weeks into a cutting phase and am already 7 pounds down . . . Ask me if it’s worth it:
