Easy Weeknight Meals for Your Family

5 Easy Weeknight Meals

Since when did feeding our families weeknight meals become so tough?

It seems like in a blink of an eye we went from freely moving about, hitting up the grocery store whenever we needed to, and never doubting the things we need the most–like toilet paper and ground beef–would always be readily available.

Need For Easy Meals

In the grocery store several weeks ago, I saw the hoarding begin.

People were loading their carts with boxes of ramen noodles, cases of chicken noodle soup, lots of soda and chips, and many rolls of toilet paper.

I get it.

That stuff lasts. The expiration date is forever far away unlike the fresh products. And, if we are going to be stuck in our homes with no way to get more food, we NEED stuff that lasts.

But I could barely resist the urge to stand on something tall and yell, “Hey people!! None of that stuff you are buying is going to help you fight off the flu!!”

Even today, several weeks after the onset of our social distancing, I can still find the produce aisle stuffed full everything nutritious, while the boxed goods/ramen noodles/canned soups aisles are like ghost towns.

(Speaking of ghost towns, have you ever wondered what it must have been like for the last person to leave the town?? No? Just me? lol)

But, if you aren’t used to cooking so much, you might not know exactly what weeknight meals to make.

Or, if the ideas had the first week and maybe even the second week have run their course…

You might need help.

What’s on the menu

Next delivery date is Sunday, June 23rd.

As I am writing this, it is a dreary, stormy day. I don’t know about you, but these “summer” days don’t really feel so summery. I can’t wait for the warm temps and the steady sunshine. I would rather be seeking out shelter from the sun rather than from all this rain.

But, despite the dreary weather, we have some YUMMY meals on the menu this week (buuutttt…..we do say that every week!! lol!).

Too many people believe that in order to eat healthy they have to give up food that tastes great.

We believe the exact opposite.

When you eat REAL, WHOLESOME food, food tastes DELICIOUS! The trick is using healthy fats and flavorful spices and quality meats.

Here are a few of our favorites on the menu this week!

Barbeque Chicken Spaghetti Squash

Barbeque Chicken Spaghetti Squash

If you are looking for a Whole30 compliant, Paleo, Gluten & Dairy free meal with LOTS of protein, this is the meal for you!

This meal is hearty and healthy and packed full with flavor!

The BBQ sauce is made from scratch and is sweetened with medjool dates.

It also packs a powerful nutritional punch with 44g of protein and it’s served on top of low-carb spaghetti squash!

The BBQ sauce comes on the side so you can add a little or a lot!

Whole30 | Paleo | Gluten/Dairy Free

Turkey Taco Bowl

Turkey Taco Bowl

An awesomely delicious and nutritious way to enjoy your tacos without unnecessary carbs!

Grain free, paleo, and Whole30 approved.

On a bed of Spanish cauliflower rice, this dish serves up a hearty dose of flavor and good-for-your body nutrition that is sure to keep your energy flowing all afternoon long!

Especially with the 24g of protein!

Banana Egg Breakfast Bowl

Banana Egg Breakfast Bowl

Traditional breakfast foods like boxed cereals leave us feeling hungry just a few hours later.

This Banana Egg Breakfast Bowl has an oatmeal-like texture, topped off with almond butter, coconut, and apples and lots of cinnamon.

Your belly and your sweet tooth will be satisfied with this meal!

And more!!!

Eat Healthy at Every Meal

I started Prepped Girl because whenever I would talk about eating healthy with people, especially moms, I would be met with some version of this: “I would love to eat like that, but I just don’t have the time.”

I distinctly remember the day the idea came to me.

I was standing in our bedroom, talking to my husband, and I said to him, “There has to be a way to help people eat healthy,” and it was like BAM! The idea downloaded instantly.

And the business was born.

But it wasn’t too long ago that someone said to me, “You should think about servicing the WHOLE mom.”

You see, as a mom myself, I know that we will always make sure our families are taken care of. We will make sure they have the food and stuff they need to thrive. 

But we don’t always do the same for ourselves. That’s why I started the business by focusing on healthy breakfasts and lunches. 

But sometimes, we moms are so busy, that getting take out or eating dinners that are high in processed ingredients is all we can really do.

So this week, we are introducing a new section to the menu: Family-Sized Freezer Meals.

Instant Pot
Family-Sized Freezer Instant Pot Meals

These meals are intended to be frozen and then prepared in the Instant Pot from frozen.

Our idea is that all you have to do is to take the frozen meal out of the freezer, place it directly into your Instant Pot, and pressure cook until done (following the included directions). 

Instant Pot
Just dump the frozen meal hinto your Instant Pot and follow cooking directions

Healthy meals ready for you and your family without having to spend time gathering or prepping ingredients.

You can go to the practices and games, take care of your homes, tend to all your other obligations, AND still feed your family nutritious, wholesome food.

You CAN eat healthy at EVERY meal!

Check out this week’s menu to see the family-sized freezer meals AND the healthy breakfasts and lunches we are offering, and while you are there, order yourself some food for next week!
