Sunday Food Prep Inspiration 91
Hi Friends!
We got a little bit of food prep done over here last weekend. Not much, but in my opinion, anything is better than nothing!
I made a batch of Quinoa Breakfast Bars for hubby to eat during the week and a batch of PB Banana Oat Muffins for me to snack on. I also prepped some veggies for snacking!
Here’s what some of you prepped last week:
Amy at Healthy Hungry Happy –
This is all food I prepped, then froze to use throughout the next week or so. Just started doing lots of freezer meals it’s really nice and convenient!
Clockwise from the too left :
Whole wheat pancakes for my two year old (and sometimes me)
Elk meat and black bean burritos for quick lunches
Slow cooker turkey bolognese- I plan on having with spaghetti squash
Slow cooker Greek chicken breasts- I’ll prep some quinoa with this
Pulled pork- cooked in the slow cooker. I’ll thaw it when we need some for lunches or quick BBQ dinner.
Paleo pumpkin muffins- I like to freeze these then take out a couple at a time so I don’t eat the whole bag at once

Starting from the top right corner:
– Washed and dried blueberries for smoothies and breakfast this week
– Made chicken sausage, butternut squash and kale soup (from Mountain Mama Cooks) for dinner tonight and leftovers during the week!
– Hard boiled eggs (quick snacks for me and the hubby
– Washed and chopped strawberries for breakfast, snacks, or smoothies
– Baked pumpkin spice energy bars for snacks (from Mountain Mama Cooks again…she’s got some great recipes!). I’ve been making these each week and they’re a huge hit in our house. Might have to stock up on pumpkin butter before it disappears from the TJ’s shelves!
– Washed and chopped bell peppers for lunches, dinners, or a quick snack with some hummus
– Made warm lentil salad for lunches this week (from Simply Stacie)
Dani at Dani California Cooks –
While I travel for work most weeks, it doesn’t make sense to do too much food prep, but I do love taking pre-made breakfast items with me. So I posted about my Single Serving Baked Chia Banana Oatmeal.
