About 550/600 grams per container for ~460 – 490 calories (calories in pic are for the whole batches)
Not super high protein but full of whole foods/veggies.
Meal 1 (right): Gnocchi with garlic tomato sauce & zucchini, roasted carrots & turkey breast (side salad not pictured) – will mix a container of cottage cheese into my sauce next time
Meal 2 (left): Pinto beans with turkey breast and roasted potatoes & onions (half cob of corn not pictured)
I have only been meal prepping for a few weeks but the most impactful learning thus far is realizing that even though I was eating healthy foods, my portions were easily 50-100% bigger than they needed to be. Having the containers to measure out what I am going to eat has been really helpful and the statement 'you can't out exercise your diet' really rings true after trying to lose some weight for 2+ years and staying about the same weight but losing 2kg this month). I hope to stick with it.
