Meal Prep Medley Meal

So I have this slight obsession with meal prepping. It's about so much more than the food, too! I love getting creative with my meals, making meal plans, and stocking my fridge full of delicious, healthy foods for the week! 

Two years ago, I didn't have the slightest clue on how to cook, nor where to start. So when I began trying to live a "healthy" lifestyle, it turned into a JOB trying to keep up with all the do's and do not's of clean eating. 

I did the research {& lots of it!}, learned how to meal prep {effective & efficiently}, & now i'm here to make your life SO much easier! 

These meals were adapted from a recipe I found called "medley meals". I fell in love with the concept of them and now they have become a staple in my weekly meal prep!


The Basics:

You want to pair a protein, a vegetable, and a complex carb together. Outside of that, you can get as creative as you want!

Mixes I've created and LOVED:

  • Ground turkey, quinoa, edamame, unsweetened cranberries, toasted pumpkin seeds, roasted vegetables {recipe to follow}, roasted butternut squash, and 1 tbsp. of trader joes Island Soyaki **pictured above**
  • Chicken, black beans, quinoa, corn, peppers, organic salsa
  • Shrimp, quinoa OR brown rice, dried cranberries, edamame, vegetable medley, crushed cashews, and Trader Joe's Pineapple Salsa
