Sunday Food Prep Inspiration 80

Hi Friends!

Time for another round of Sunday Food Prep!

Here’s what I did last weekend.

Here’s what some of you have been up to:

Nora at A Clean Bake:

This week, we didn’t have time to go grocery shopping so I am prepping and meal planning from what is already in the fridge, freezer and pantry. That means lots of salads and stir fry dishes to use up odds and ends! So I prepared:

• Spinach and kale for salads
• Pearled barley
• Hard boiled eggs
• Chicken, pork, salmon and tofu (defrosting for dinners)
• Cole slaw
• LIghtly steamed brussels sprouts (great as a change-of-pace salad base) and string beans
• Roasted cauliflower
• PB&J overnight oats
• Black bean veggie burgers
• Frittata for breakfast
• Chicken sausage
• Pre-portioned carrots and celery hummus
• Sugar-free lemonade

Carrie at Carried Away About Nutrition - This week Gus (5 month old yellow lab) wanted to say hi! He typically hangs around in the kitchen while I am prepping food for the week. He absolutely loves carrot sticks:) Here is what I did this week:
– Washed and prepped organic romaine for salads
– Washed, peeled and chopped carrots
– Cut up strawberries (one container for me and one for my fiance for work)
– Made a batch of peanut butter chocolate chip power bars (recipe on the blog!)
– Cooked a large batch of orange chicken and broccoli for dinner Sunday and leftovers for lunch
– Baked gluten free chocolate zucchini mini loaves to freeze in individual baggies and enjoy as an indulgent treat here or there!

Some tips from Valerie at The Sweet Seed - In this meal plan, I made egg cups for breakfast, fish veggies carbs for lunch, chicken veggies carbs for dinner, and fruit and nuts for snacks.

Amanda at Ready for Change - I prepped/cooked:
- banana chocolate chip raspberry muffins
- pulled chicken in the crockpot
- all the fixings for Mediterranean salads (chicken, quinoa, red peppers, red onion, grape tomatoes, feta and roasted red pepper hummus)

I had a muffin with fruit each morning. I made salads for lunch eat day with the ingredients in the big photo. We used the pulled chicken to top sweet potatoes with salsa. Also, one night I wanted something different for dinner, so I threw some pulled chicken, quinoa and random veggies into a bowl with salsa. It worked!
