From the Publisher MEAL PREP PLAN 1: BEGINNER Welcome to the world of meal prepping! This first menu is for those who are just starting to meal prep and for folks who plan to meal prep only a few meals and snacks a week. With this plan, each day you will have three containers available to you: one breakfast, one snack and one lunch or dinner. ROASTED SALMON IN BARBECUE SAUCE Roasted salmon makes a great go-to dish. It’s delicious plain, and it’s also super easy to give it a quick marinade and cook it up within 15 to 20 minutes. Cooked salmon freezes nicely, so you can stash two servings in the refrigerator and the other two in the freezer for later in the week. To save time, swap the homemade barbecue sauce for store-bought low-sugar barbecue sauce. GREENS AND GRAINS BOWLS Chard is a low-carbohydrate vegetable packed with nutrients and has a flavor similar to spinach. Remove the tough center stem before cooking. PARMESAN-CRUSTED CHICKEN BREASTS I find the best taste testers to be my own children, especially since they are rather picky. After I served this dish to my teenage son, he loved it so much that it now makes a regular appearance on our dinner table. EGGS WITH SPINACH AND BEANS Spinach for breakfast? Absolutely! Breakfast is a perfect time to add low-carb vegetables and plant-based proteins to your meal plan. The spinach and beans provide fiber, which helps keep you feeling satisfied during your busy morning. CHERRY PECAN GREEK YOGURT BARK This no-cook, refreshing sweet treat uses Greek yogurt as the base. Spread out the ingredients on a baking sheet and pop the pan in the freezer. In a few hours you’ll have a cooling snack that can be kept in the freezer for up to 1 month.
