I really liked this video very informative. I’m new to this and I love peanut butter so I will definitely try this out also can you make a video of what you would pack for a day at work ie lunch and snacks throughout the day. I’m trying to get into meal prepping and looking for ideas when on a busy schedule.

[@dreweekly7135]

For a typically work day I pack chicken and rice (whatever type you like but I use steam bags to make it easy) and split that between two meals. You can also bring a steam bag of a veggie to split with it so you get in protein, carbs, and veggie. I then will bring cottage cheese as a snack, raw almonds and usually have a protein shake or protein bar on hand. Hard broiled eggs are a great snack as well because you can cook a bunch on Sunday and have 2 for each day! I don’t always do chicken and rice though. My main meals are typically leftovers from last nights dinner. We usually eat pretty healthy so I don’t need to do too much meal prepping besides packing my snacks

[@pimpinondemhos101]

I make one each night over doing 4-5 for the week. I have found that when you meal prep it for the entire week the oats seem to take on a different consistency. It only takes me a few minutes to make one so no biggie.
