I'm having eye surgery tomorrow (bye, glasses!) and since I'll be out of commission for 2-3 days, I thought some meal prepping would be helpful.

Vegetable soup
Homemade frozen vegetable mix (see prev post for ingredients), sauteed in a bit of oil, boiled with around 3l of veggie stock for about 40 min. Noodles will be added to each portion when reheating.

Cous-cous- quinoa salad
250g cucumber
1 big bell pepper
2 small onions
100g black olives
– all of above diced
300g cous cous (the big one)
100g quinoa
– boiled together for 14 min in salt water, then drained
Dressing and extra spices will be added to taste (it lasts longer without dressing mixed in)

Oven baked chicken thighs (for the bf) / pan fried halloumi (for me); will serve with the cous cous salad.

Hummus with carrot sticks (will add feta cheese and crackers when serving)
For the hummus, I blended canned chickpeas (240g, but I should have doubled it) with a bit of sesame, sesame oil, olive oil, salt and some of the chickpea water (sometimes I add garlic too, not this time tho).
