For many of us, health and wellness are at the top of the list when it comes to New Year\u2019s resolutions. But you might be slightly unsure about how you\u2019ll be tackling those resolutions when it\u2019s time to head back to work or back to school. With meal prepping, following through with your healthy eating goals has never been so easy.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s it all about?<\/p>\n

Meal prepping is a super helpful way to establish the habit of choosing more nutritious meals, so you don\u2019t need to make unplanned and convenience-based decisions when you\u2019re stressed, hungry, or exhausted. In those cases, the chances are you\u2019ll reach for something carb-heavy and sugary.<\/p>\n

Preparing meals ahead of time so that they\u2019re packed and ready to eat when your cravings kick in or the hunger pangs hit is particularly effective for those of us with tight work schedules, or for busy moms and dads who\u2019re doing it to save time and make sure kids are eating healthily.<\/p>\n

Start with a clear plan<\/p>\n

Kickstart your healthy lifestyle by researching and saving a few yummy and healthy recipes your family won\u2019t be able to resist. Next, write out your meals for the week and assign specific days to specific foods.<\/p>\n

Planning every step of your healthy eating journey keeps you focussed and simplifies the decision-making process for the rest of the week. You could even use a daily planner or calendar to schedule your meals and stay organised, making it easier and less time consuming to create a shopping list. Bonus!<\/p>\n

Prepping cooked rice, roasted or steamed veg and some grilled chicken (all which can be done in the LG NeoChef Convection) or other protein are building block to simple, healthy and nutritious meals for lunch or supper. These become quick bowls, power salads or quick sandwiches or quesadillas.<\/p>\n

Grated cheese, cut fruit and veggies and some dips can be quick snacks that anyone can help themselves to.<\/p>\n

Packing your refrigerator in an organised way, using all the baskets and storage options allows your family to grab and go when on the run, or give your little ones some independence to help themselves when you are otherwise occupied.<\/p>\n

Challenge yourself<\/p>\n

By planning and cooking make-ahead meals, you\u2019ll not only be eating mindfully, you\u2019re also bound to save time and money. Your refrigerator and microwave play essential roles here to keep your prepped ingredients fresh throughout the week, and to warm at dinner time.<\/p>\n
