Prep Guidelines
Meals to Prepare Ahead of Time
Please be familiar with the 5 day recipes. It can be very beneficial to do one prep day, especially if
you are away from home a lot. Below you will find a list of what to prepare in advance to save you
time on busy days. We recommend that you store prepared food in labelled glass containers in
the fridge or freezer.
* If there are no guidelines for a certain recipe, it is because it needs to be made fresh!
** If you have leftovers feel free to eat them the following day for a healthy snack. Another suggestion is to follow the meal plan for 5 days, then eat leftovers (especially dinners) on the weekend. Have fun with it and find what works for you!

On prep day pack individual freezer bags with all smoothie ingredients (*excluding
