January Meal Prep | Week Four

 

 

I'm focusing on honing in on what I really want to eat intuitively and that's some  good healthy fats! Everything I'm craving has something to do with fat so this week's prep caters to that! The Pioneer Woman makes a killer coconut curry shrimp to help me get through week 15 of my program and the last week of January!

January Meal Prep | Week Three

Dinner meal prep gives us more leftovers than ever before. It's been so terrific to have a surplus of food! Who doesn't love more food? More food means that I don't have to cook! I'm good with leftover food especially when it's fried rice. I re-purposed the fried rice from our meal prep so that I could use it as my carb source for lunches. I'm finding with my intermittent fasting I'm not all that hungry because I'm eating more in one sitting . Instead of eating more snacks I'm eating more in one sitting and more carbs because I'm so damn hungry . My body is craving more carbs and after hitting sooo many PR's last week while I was lifting who am I to deprive myself?

January Dinner Meal Prep | Week Two

 Another successful week of dinner prep in the books. This was such an easy dinner prep using everything we have at the house. I want to make sure we're eating different kinds of food so that we're not having the urge to eat out as much. Of course, my family and I eat out at the nearest Filipino restaurant because that's the only type of food I don't want leftovers of. I'm loving our Sunday family brunches as well! Sundays are our lazy days so we bake right before Waymon gets up in the morning. All of our recipes are linked below!

Monday - Crab Fried Rice 

Tuesday  - Taco Salad  

 Wednesday - Lazy Wonton Soup 

Thursday - Spaghetti Carbornara 

Friday  - Burger and Fries  

Saturday  Leftovers 

Sunday Breakfast : Brie and Three Berry Jam Popovers 

Sunday Chicken Milanese Salad

January Meal Prep | Week Two

 This meal prep week is a lazy one because of our leftovers from the dinner prep. I can't believe that we had that much leftover! This prep is using what we had one hand incorporated with some new veggies and sausage to revamp the leftovers. Haidyn helped with this weeks prep as well. She measured out all the cauliflower rice and seasoned the veggies. Helping is serious business in our home. Can you tell with her serious face?

January Dinner Meal Prep | Week One

 

Dinners are a struggle for us, not the cooking part but the prepping part. We never know what we're making so that turns into us making a "convenient" meal which I can't stand. I want to me more proactive this year in dinners and meal prep because I don't want to eat out anymore. We've cut back on eating out in the past couple years but I want to cut it back even further. Waymon is also learning how to cook this year! ( Queue the hallelujah chorus) . I'm excited that he'll be cooking along side with me. Cooking in our home will finally be a family event! I'm hoping to keep this up for the entire year and post about it.All of this front work will help cut down on our grocery bills and time in the kitchen. It also helps that we have a HUGE chalkboard to list everything down. :) 

Here is our first week of dinners! We varied our dinners slightly because of what we had on hand. We had two days of leftovers!

MONDAY - Chicken bake & Cauliflower rice

TUESDAY- Jalapeno Parmesan- Crusted Grilled Cheese w/ Split Pea Soup

WEDNESDAY - Flank Steak with Garlic Smashed Potatoes

THURSDAY - Chicken Kabobs w/ Fried Rice 

FRIDAY - Breakfast Pizza 

SATURDAY- LEFTOVERS :) 

SUNDAY BREAKFAST : Biscuits and Turkey Gravy  

SUNDAY - LEFTOVERS :)

Jaunary Meal Prep | Week One

We're back on the meal prep blogging game! I never stopped meal prepping in 2018. I unfortunately had terrible lazy food recipes and was too lazy post anything. I'm attempting to make my food more interesting and taste better. THANK YOU PINTEREST! I will be linking therecipes down below. 2019 is the year that I'm dialing into my nutrition .  Currently, I'm not following a food diet of any kind however I am intermittent fasting  and intuitively eating. I  eat from 830 AM -700 PM and fast the rest of the time. I eat if I'm hungry and don't if I'm not. I've honestly simplified my eating for the better. I was sick and tired of stuffing my face until the point that I was overly stuffed because I hated the feeling. Over feeding myself even with healthy foods was tiring and overwhelming. I want to make sure that I'm continually creating a healthy relationship with food and myself because it hasn't always been that way. I will of course make sure that I'm reaching for good healthy foods , but allowing myself a treat if I want it.

COFFEE - Bullet Proof Coffee   (1 HEALTHY FAT)
BREAKFAST –Oatmeal Cookie Protein Shake

SNACK 1 –Apple w/ PB
