Collard Green Wrap and Soup.

This week's diet is a Vegan diet.  I created a meal plan consisting of 6 vegan meals/day for the entire week.  It is day 2, and I'm absolutely loving everything about it.  Am I a Vegan or Vegetarian? No, but I have friends that are, and want to best educate myself and prepare meal plans so that I can best be of help clients in the future that  may prefer this type of diet. 

Collard green wrap and lentil soup! 
The soup:
Vegetable broth, carrots, onion, celery, and lentils
The wrap:
Hummus, carrots, onions, cucumbers, tomatoes, and spinach.

Clean, heathy, vegan, and delicious.

Meal Prep Sunday

While this may look like it took the entire day to prep, it only took 2 hours.  A few simple tips to help you achieve success when meal prepping.  Cook your rice and potatoes the day before, this will save you time in the kitchen on your actual day of putting all the meals together.  Choose 2-3 proteins you would like for your meals, such as ground turkey, ground chicken, and chicken breast.  While your proteins are cooking (in the oven, bbq, or stovetop), prepare  your vegetables by steaming and roasting, this should take about 1hr. to cook your proteins and greens.

Once all your food has cooled, simply measure or weigh out your starches and place in the containers, weigh your proteins in a separate bowl and add each amount to your containers, once your starch and proteins are in your containers, load them with as many veggies as you'd like.

I always prep meals 2-4.  As breakfast and dinner are made fresh daily, however having extra starches and veggies prepared will help for a quick throw together of a dinner for a busy work week.
