Food Prep Day!

Okay, so I am going to get on the wagon and try this food prep thing! And I apparently have already failed one of the cardinal rules, I am shopping on the same day as I am prepping!  I read a few times this morning on various blogs and websites to not shop on the same day as you food prep, or it just makes for too long of a day.  Oh well, I reckon I will be fine since I am running on excitement here!

So I started with the Team Beachbody website where I was able to get a weekly list of recipes for each meal and snack.  From there, I was able to pull up the grocery list and x out the items we already had or what we do not like.

The only thing about getting the recipes and grocery list from Team Beach Body, they are only giving the amounts of 1 person.  So I had to problem solve a little and figure out what extra we may need for entire dishes.  I still think I need a few more peppers, but I will work around what I have because I still have tons of food!

Thankfully I had a great helper (as seen above) that is also thrilled to have some more healthy choices in the house.  And my poor sick girl kept coming to get more strawberries and celery as we were cutting them!  I am already seeing the kids enjoying these foods just as much as some junk we have, something I have been wanting.  So we are on the right track!

Hopefully in a couple of weeks I will have some good tips from what I am learning about food prepping for the week to share here.  Do you already have some tips for food prepping that will be helpful to us as we start new these new, healthy habits?  Please share!
