Prepping still takes me HOURS but I'm always grateful during my work week to have everything ready. I work 3-4 twelve hour shifts so I pack all 3 meals fully just for the work week.

Yogurt parfait recipe
-Fage plain yogurt
-1 scoop vanilla protein powder
-splash of milk
– sugared strawberries
Dump about 1 cup of yogurt into a bowl, add protein powder. Mix well. It will look like frosting consistency. Add milk a little at a time until it returns to yogurt consistency and is smooth. Top with sugared strawberries. Refrigerate overnight. It turns into a creamy dessert type pudding and the strawberries make their own syrup.
I’ve done real sugar, light syrup, and monk fruit sugar with good results.
