Meal Prep Saturday

Fiancé’s preps for 1/2 the week (lunch and dinner during night shifts)

I learned a lesson today: Never ask my fiancé what he wants for his meal preps. His response was “lunchables”, I said …..definitely not! The price for the amount of food (& quality of food) in lunchables is ridiculous, so I made my own 😛 Can’t wait to see his reaction!

Ingredients: Top Preps

• Chicken breasts w/ barbecue sauce

• Potatoes w/ salt, pepper, garlic powder, italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese

• Frozen bag of corn w/ butter

Ingredients: Bottom Preps

• The goal was to replicate the exact lunchables he requested, so I used crackers, turkey, mild cheddar cheese, and oreos (plus an apple since I can’t complete a meal prep without some form of fruit/veggie!)

I was dreading the grocery bill since I had to buy more pre packaged foods than usual to make these dang lunchables, but for his food it was probably around $20 max for 3 days based on what I used, which isn’t the worst but i’ve done better!

Hope these inspired someone today. Happy meal prepping! 🍗🌽🥔
