A little bit of meal prep
Here is a bit of meal prep from a while ago. I believe in the plate method and the rainbow. These foods would have been components that would go into balanced meals.
Make a larger batch of porridge.
Oatmeal, oats, porridge… whatever you call it. I like to cook a double batch of porridge for the week. Store some in the fridge for upcoming days. Freeze the rest for later. It can be easily reheated.
Roast chunks of cauliflower or other vegetables
Roast veggies at the start of the week. Nibble on plain veg with chickpeas. Add the plants into wraps or sandwiches. This is a useful component. Cauliflower feels good on its own or with a sauce.
Seasoned roasted chickpeas
The phrase ‘taco chickpeas’ can mean one thing in my household. Season these legumes in a bit of olive oil and taco seasoning (DIY mixed spices if possible). Then roast or air-fry these foods. Then we have a simple tasty healthy snack. Too easy!
