"Mom, What's for Dinner??!!"



4 Weeks of Prepped Food for the Family! 

We all Hear it. 
From the kids, from the husband... and sometimes our own ever-frazzled heads!!! 

There's Work. School. Doctor Appointments. Errands. Emails. Church. Personal Fitness. Orthodontists. Dentists. Football. Soccer. Cheer. Band. Gymnastics. Growing housework. Piled up dishes. Hungry Bellies... Demands, Demands, Demands. 

I get it! We are BUSY MAMAS! Maybe your list is slightly shorter or more lengthy? I tell you one things -- in this fast-paced, ever-busy life, it can all get overwhelming. 

This ONE THING has eliminated a few of my stressors lately -- all because a friend said "I THINK WE CAN!" 

And guess what???? By Jiminy, WE DID IT! 

"Meal Prep" may sound intimidating, but knowing that I have my family's dinner mapped out, planned and prepped for a solid MONTH makes me feel AMAZING! 

So -- no more NECESSARY Weekday 8pm Subway and McAllister's trips after PiYo & Soccer on Mondays, PiYo, Football & Prayer Meeting on Tuesdays, Church on Wednesdays, and Soccer on Thursdays! YES!!! This had become our LIFE!!! Trying to pick and choose the healthiest of options because I was rapidly losing the progress I had made from previous dedication to clean-eating and meal-prepping. YES. There had to be a turning point, and this has been IT!!

Dinners are prepped and frozen, ready to be placed in the crock pot, or set in the oven. Guesswork ELIMINATED. 

Variety? YES. 
Clean Recipes? YES. 
21 Day Fix Approved? YES! Breakfast Burritos

  1. Chicken Fajitas
  2. Chicken Tacos
  3. Chili
  4. Lasagna
  5. Mini Meatloaves
  6. Pork Chops
  7. Pork Carnitas
  8. Spaghetti

For two families of 4 we prepped lunches, dinners and half of our breakfasts. The other half of breakfasts, all snacks and FRESH VEGGIES are planned and will be bought and/or prepped weekly. 

"BUT HOWWWWWW??? I just CAN'T!!!!"

For me, all it took was:

  • a friend saying - "Hey, You wanna...?"
  • a little time planning and gathering clean recipes I liked. 
  • setting aside the time to prep it all in one evening. 
  • a husband with faith in me. 

We are 1/2 way through the first week of our meal plan, and the husband and kiddos have enjoyed everything they've consumed. No Fast Food. Family Meals. 

You can, too.

I'm pretty excited about prepping in bulk again NEXT month!!!!

(Big Shout Out to my friend Candice Simon, girl, I absolutely could not have done this without you!!)
