Lunch/Dinner
- Garlic, lemon & Italian herb chicken
– Sides of Pumpkin, Sweet Potato, Potato, corn & Asparagus.
- Using the above chicken I also made a chicken salad. Simple dressing of Lemon, dried oregano, olive oil & salt.
- Beef stew with a side of brown rice & Quinoa.
Note:
Everyday we will alternate what we preferred for lunch and dinner, just so we are not eating the same thing every day.
Storing Meals:
I prepare meals for approx 3 days, I store them in the fridge heat them up when needed and they taste delicious every single time. Both my husband and I personally don’t like the whole freezing cooked meals in the freezer, but I do premarinate proteins and freeze them and just allow them to thaw once ready to be cooked.
Chicken Marinade;
- 500 Grams chicken breast (cleaned and sliced)
- 2-3 cloves garlic crushed
- 1 lemon juiced
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Italian mixed herbs
Tip;
– Use a zip lock bag fold it over a small bowl and place the chicken marinade and chicken into the bag, seal it well and then shake the bag allowing the marinade to coat the chicken evenly. This is a mess free way when meal prepping.
Beef Stew;
For the beef stew I literally only used the continental recipe base called ‘Beef Stew’ I purchased this from coles. I used diced beef however, Lamb back strap will also be delicious in this dish.
Enjoy!
