Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I don't have a meal plan, but I do have a major tip....use prepackaged salads and frozen veggies. These save a lot of prep work in the kitchen. Debbie Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I think the trick is to make what's good for you easy! I'm not much on planning, but here is my approach: You can pre-grill seasoned chicken breasts, roast some pork or beef, hard boil some eggs, make a batch of brown rice or barley, have lots of fresh veggies washed, cut up and ready to go, make batches of things like tuna salad and hummus, buy lean ham, low fat cottage cheese (maybe in those little packages) and string cheese sticks, salad greens and dressings, whole grain bread, that kind of thing. Then you can throw together a sandwich or chef salad or even assemble a good meal with little time or thought involved. Also batch cooking can be a life saver. Cook once, eat several times always makes sense. I sometimes make a big meat loaf with lots of minced veggies in it, so a slice is practically a meal in itself phase 1 or add a good starch for phase 2. Hope this helps.
