Meal Prep:: Week of 3/16




Hi Beauties!!




Week of 3/16 meal prep is a wrap....what did you prepare for this week? This week I had my normal staples and fish and veggies for dinner! Yum....here we go!



Mid-Morning Snack::


I was feeling extra lazy yesterday and wasn't in the mood to do a lot of cooking so I combined my meats and egg white muffins. Some of you may be wondering why I wasn't doing it this way to begin with and here is why:

  • Adding the meats means the egg whites don't go as far (because more space is being taken up in each tin) so you almost HAVE to use more eggs. I believe I used 10 this week.
  • In turn, they overfill fairly easily
I also added some diced tomato and spinach, should be pretty tasty. This week I used half a pack (2 Links) of the Sweet Basil Pesto Smoked Chicken & Turkey Sausage from Trader Joe's:
 
 
Afternoon Snack:


Again, Trader Joe's Chickenless Chicken Tenders,  with a sprinkle of Old Bay for some added flavor.
 
Dinner:
 
Last week I came across of my budget friendly fav fish on sale, wild caught Perch fish, of which I picked up two packs. There is a lot to love about this fish. Its boneless, the filets are small, doesn't need  a lot of cleaning,  it has a nice texture to it...and again it is fairly inexpensive (about $2-3.50 per pack)

I cleaned and seasoned these up with my go tos: fresh garlic, cilantro, my asian spices (sweet ginger & 5 spice), gourmet marinade, and red onions and let it marinate in the fridge for a few hours. To cook them I just popped in an oven at 375 for about 15 minutes.



As a side, I had some left over fresh broccoli bunches from last week so I chopped those up and added to a pan with some coconut oil & sauteed garlic. I also decided to add about 1/4 of a bag of frozen carrots, some of that triple ginger teriyaki sauce, and some of the asian seasonings.
 

At the end, I added some peppers and onions and a pinch of smoked sea salt for enhanced flavor. Probably took about 12 minutes all together to prepare. That's it!
