A lot of my recipes seem like a lot to do but really I use my prep day to pre-make as many ingredients or meals as possible. So for 4 hours worth of work and organization in the kitchen I can have a weeks worth of easy grab meals.....seems like a fair trade to me!
Here's an example of one of my meals!
Sweet Potato Pancakes:
1 scoop BSN Desserts Cinnamon Roll flavor
Cinnamon
1 packet of Stevia
1 tbl spoon of Sweet Cocoa Nibs
3 oz of sweet potatoes
2 egg whites
Here's what it looks like when I prep my mashed sweet potatoes:
Peeled, chopped and boiled about 5 sweet potatoes. I don't know why but I like to hand mash the sweet potatoes instead of blending/mixing them. I think it has to do with the fact that I don't want to clean the blender afterwards :) But these have all been mashed.
I use these taller containers for the finished product. Mostly because I don't really know what else I would use the tall containers for. I store them in a row in the fridge so once I use all of one I just go right on to the next one! Pretty simple!
Here's the pancake in the process! I've gotten a rhythm down on how I like to cook them. I make them smaller than shown here and I do several at a time in one pan. I use PAM butter non-stick spray to keep them from being a mess. I make them smaller just because they are easy to pick up and enjoy and it feels like I have more haha
So this is just a tip on how I can have something healthy every day since I do some of the work ahead of time! Whether it's cooking batches of my proteins and veggies or prepping part of my ingredients I've learned that eating healthy doesn't have to take ALL your time, it just takes using your time the right way!
Hope this is a helpful example! I'll be posting a little bit more later today/tonight!!! Have a fabulously wonderful day!
Cheers!
