What Can I Meal Prep?

• cooked grains & pasta
• cooked beans
• cooked meat
• roasted vegetables
• hearty fresh vegetables (think celery, carrots, peas, bell peppers, kale, cabbage, radishes, etc.)
• whole fruit (apples, oranges, stone fruit)
• nuts & seeds
• cheese
• sauces and dips (like salad dressings, hummus, salsa, sour cream, etc.)

An easy way to think about meal prepping is to make a formula out of it. When deciding which foods to meal prep I try to pick out one of the following formulas:

• Basic: Protein + Grain + Vegetable
• Low Carb: Protein + Vegetable + Vegetable
• Vegetarian: Legume + Grain + Vegetable
