Protein Salads
Protein salads are one of my favorite lunch recipes to meal prep! They’re so easy to whip up and can be served so many different ways… with crackers, as a sandwich, in a lettuce wrap, etc.
Meal Prep Bowls
These meal prep bowls make for awesome portable lunch options! Just prep all your components ahead of time, store in the fridge and you’ve got a full meal ready to go.
Mason Jar Salads
Mason jar salads are the perfect way to meal prep protein salads and there are so many options to choose from.
Meal-Sized Salads
I love meal-sized salads! You get veggies, carbs, protein and healthy fats all in one meal. Plus, they can easily be made in advance for quick and easy lunches throughout the week.
