Food Prep - the key to clean eating...

I thought I'd take a moment to share how we prepped for a week of yummy and easy clean eating:

Sausage and Salad

*Spicy Chicken Spolumbos Sausages
*Egg/veggie/sausage baked quiche
*Beef meatballs
*Slowcooker Chicken Tikki Masala
It takes no time if you multitask! I put the chicken thighs in the oven (35 mins) while gary BBQ'd the Spolumbos. I cut up 2 small yams and a whole head of cauliflower and added them to the slowcooker with the coconut milk (2 cans) and the tikki masala spices. Then I prepped the egg quiche. In a bowl I whisked 16 eggs, spinach, red pepper, asparagus, brussel sprouts and Mrs Dash southwest spice - I greased the large pyrex dish. When Gary finished the Spolumbos (he made 9), I took 2.5 and cut them up in smallish chunks and put them on the bottom of the pyrex dish, then poured the egg mixture over it all. I removed the chicken thighs from the oven and added them to the slow cooker (let cook for 6hrs+ or overnight on low, mixing whenever...) and put the egg quiche in (40 mins). We then prepped the meat balls. We chopped onion and cooked it in a pan til it was clear, mixed ground beef with shredded zucchini and 5 spice chinese spice - added the onion in and made 2 large pans of large meatballs (you could also freeze some really nicely if you dont have a hubby who eats copious amounts of food in a day/week). When the quiche comes out we will put the meatballs in. Done! I also bought some fresh snapper fillets and will do those up fresh with lemon one night, maybe with steamed green beans. I might also do a shrimp stirfry one night as well. A day of eating with the groceries we have on hand this week might look like:

6am: egg/veg/sausage quiche with salsa, coffee
10am: 2 beef meatballs - we made them big :) and veggies (cucumber slices, a carrot, pea pods...whatever)
1pm: slowcooker chicken tikki masala
4pm: 1/2 a spolumbos sausage and veggies
7pm: snapper and salad with avocado etc.

Or

6am: egg white protein powder pancake with almond butter, coffee
9am: 1/2 cup fresh raspberries and some cashews+almonds
noon: beef meatballs and a huge salad
3pm: veggies
6pm: egg/veg/sausage quiche

Hope this helps you have a satisfying and yummy week of meals!
