Let’s face it, we’re all living some sort of busy, right? Meal planning and prep saves you time, money, and hassle. It can help you keep up your personal fitness and crazy work schedule and still squeeze in some time for fun on the weekends. This month, we invite you to explore the magic of meal planning.
Simply put, meal prep is the act of preparing meals or meal components ahead of time and storing them in the fridge or freezer. Putting in the effort ahead of time makes getting meals on the table efficient and straightforward later on when you may be short of time.
At BMC, we believe a commitment to well-being should enhance your quality of life rather than adding stress. That’s why we’re making it easy to complete this challenge and help you save money, save time, reduce your stress and eat healthier. Let’s break down the benefits of meal planning and prep:
The options are endless for prepping food ahead of time, so there really is no right or wrong way to meal prep. Depending on your goals, schedule, and meal preferences, you can freeze large batches of a recipe, refrigerate a full meal or prepare ingredients to combine as needed. Find a method that works for you and pick one day per week to meal plan, shop, and cook. Here are five meal prepping techniques to try:
If you’re new to meal planning, your mobile device can help. Meal planning apps allow users to choose specific meal plans and recipes, create shopping lists, and track nutritional information. Check out the top-rated apps here, or check out five free apps here.
Participate in the Plan Well, Eat Well Meal Plan Challenge and take a moment to feel good, knowing that meal planning makes it easier for you to eat well with less stress. And give yourself an extra pat on the back for saving money while you’re at it.
Happy planning and prepping!
