Food Prep Tips

Alright, girlfriend, let’s talk about food prep – not the traditional meal prep, but a simpler, more intuitive approach. Ryan here, sharing five tips to make your food prep a breeze and keep things easy in your busy life.

1. Three Go-To Staples: Have three go-to staples for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. These are quick, easy meals you know how to make and always have ingredients for. For example, oats, English muffin with peanut butter, or avocado toast can be breakfast staples.

2. Prep While Making Dinner: Spend one hour prepping while you’re already making dinner. Use the time when you’re already in the kitchen to chop veggies, fruits, or make rice. Efficiency is key – get it done while you’re already in the cooking mode.

3. Elevate Your Sauce Game: Sauces are the game-changer. Transform basic meals like chicken, rice, and broccoli with different sauces. Teriyaki, buffalo, or bitchin’ sauce can turn the mundane into something exciting. Sauces add variety without much effort.

4. Stock Up on Freezer and Non-Perishables: Keep your freezer stocked with proteins like ground turkey, salmon, or chicken. Also, stock up on non-perishables like rice, tortillas, quinoa, and pasta. This ensures you have options on days when your fridge is running low.

5. Keep Things Simple and Separate: Don’t overcomplicate when you prep. Keep things simple and separate. Bake veggies or cook proteins with minimal seasoning so you can mix and match later. This allows you to create different meals using the same base ingredients.

Food shouldn’t be consuming more than five minutes of your headspace. If it is, let’s chat. Follow these tips to streamline your food prep, making it intuitive, efficient, and enjoyable. Keep things simple, and remember, a little sauce can go a long way.
