Clean Eating Meal Prep Guide (Week 4) – Weekly Meal Prep tips featuring clean, whole food recipes. Always simple and always family friendly!
It’s my mission to provide homemade, clean meals and avoid processed ingredients as much as possible for my family. In this weekly series, I will be sharing what I’m prepping for the week ahead. Pre-prepping is my secret for grabbing breakfast on the way out the door and makes packing lunches a breeze. Not to mention it cuts the food budget and reduces the urge to cheat!
For my Top 10 Clean Eating Meal Prep tips, check out this post!
For me, meal prep involves making one or two breakfast and lunch choices for the week ahead, some healthy snacks, and a few ingredients for dinner. If I have extra in-season produce, I will also prep and freeze it. My meal prep sessions usually take an hour or two at the most and always include my favorite tunes cranked up in the background!
I like to overlap recipes/ingredients as much as possible. For example, this week’s shredded chicken and homemade mayo will both be used for the Chicken & Apple Curry Salad I’m also making. Here is this week’s plan…
Clean Eating Meal Prep Guide (Week 4)
Breakfast/Snack: Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins – these are very hearty muffins with no refined sugar!
Breakfast/Snack: Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs in the Instant Pot or stovetop
Lunch/Snacks: Lettuce, Carrots, Cucumbers – for salads and snacking
Lunch/Dinner: Shredded Chicken in the Instant Pot or Slow Cooker – endless uses…chicken noodle soup, pot pie, chicken salad, etc.
Lunch: Paleo Chicken & Apple Curry Salad – one of my favorites for lunch!
Dinner/Freezer: Instant Pot Hamburger Soup – this recipe makes enough for one dinner and leftovers for lunch the next day
Snack: Mint Chocolate Chip Energy Bars (Larabar copycat) – great for afternoon/post workout snack, or anytime you need a sweet fix!
