f you’re struggling with meal prepping, let me show you how seamless it can be. This meal prep only uses 15 main ingredients (plus a few spices) to make four different recipes – let me show you how I did this.
The key is to use versatile proteins, starches and vegetables and to use recipes that use these overlapping ingredients. This way you’re never bored of your meals, you don’t have a long grocery list and you can get the meal prep done quickly and cheaply!
The first step is prepping the staples. For this meal prep, that means cooking rice in the rice cooker, making pickled onions, chopping the lettuce and tomatoes and making the BBQ tofu. From there, you are simply arranging these ingredients together in different ways for the different dishes.
For the taco bowls, I combined the wild rice, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles onions and tofu. I added guac for dressing.
For the meal prep BBQ tofu & wild rice bowl, you just need wild rice, BBQ shredded tofu, pickled onions and coleslaw. For the meal prep BBQ tofu tacos, you need the wraps, BBQ tofu, pickled onions, tomato and lettuce. Top with guacamole.
For the overnight oats, grab oats, chia seeds, protein powder, cocoa powder, banana and almond butter.
