10-Minute Meal Planning Success

3/29/2015

0 Comments

 
Today’s guest blog post comes from Laura Taylor, Certified Personal Chef and Owner of Honest to Goodness. She and her team of cooking professionals help people with active lifestyles who want to eat healthy but don’t have the time to plan a menu, grocery shop, or cook. 
It’s 6:00am and your alarm clock screams at you to get up. Snooze button? No, not today. You’re off to the races again with another jam-packed schedule. Before breakfast, lunch, and snacks become back-burnered again, take 10 minutes to prepare these quick grab-and-go foods. Your stomach and brain will thank you during your intense work day. Feeding yourself properly throughout the day means you’re also less likely to binge at night on an excessively large meal.

Here’s how to squeeze 10 minutes (or save 10 on another day) into your daily schedule to pack your food for the day:
  1. Take 10 minutes at night before you go to bed to prep for the following day
  2. Set your alarm clock for 10 minutes earlier and don’t hit the snooze!
  3. Prep a batch recipe once to have multiple portions throughout the week
  4. Make coffee at home so you don’t spend 10+ minutes in line at your favorite coffee shop

Honest to Goodness’ Top 10 Recipe Links for On-the-Go Breakfasts, Snacks, & Light Lunches:
  • Overnight Oatmeal

  • Yogurt & Granola Parfaits

  • Morning Glory Muffin Bread

  • Blueberry Protein Muffins

  • Smoothies
  • Blueberry Bliss Energy Bars

  • Open-Faced Rice Cakes

  • Pinwheels & Roll-ups

  • Trail Mix

  • Bagel Thin Sandwiches
Ensure a productive day with less stress by taking care to eat even small meals and snacks on a regular schedule. A car without gas doesn’t win any races. Likewise, a body without its own food fuel ends up weak and tired.

For more great advice on menu planning, grocery shopping, or to learn how working with a personal chef can support your active lifestyle, contact Laura at Honest to Goodness or like Honest to Goodness Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest pages.
