Sometimes it's just making healthy snacks for the week- cutting up veggies for the crunchy cravings, Having Breakfast already made up for easy yet healthy filling mornings, or its "cookies" sitting in the fridge for those sweet tooth moments. whatever it is, Its key to have stuff on hand. and always ready.
It takes so much work. I won't lie. Just the organization, motivation, and meal planning required feels like a full-time job.
There are weeks I rock it.
Then there are Monday mornings where we are all getting ready for school/work and Im like Yeahhhhh. I forgot everything all weekend.
Those are NOT fun mornings.
But thankfully those mornings jump-start a quick meal prep hour at the end of the day where I whip up some yummies.
Im getting real good at knowing the easy recipes, the foods everyone likes, the cost effective foods, and the stuff that generally get a smile from everyone.
A favorite?
5 ingrediant energy balls.
My Ben thinks they are the best foods on earth and feels like he's completely cheating on his "no sugar"lifestyle
And they are so good for him, Flax seeds, chia seeds, oats, honey, and peanut butter, all healthy and filling, yet they taste delicious!
We whip up a double batch and put half in baggies for easy lunch packing!
