SUNDAY FOOD PREP – making a busy week easier

Sometimes it can be difficult to stick to the Paleo lifestyle when our working week is busy with gym, socialising (if you can fit it in), and keeping the household in order. One way to overcome this is ‘Sunday Food Prep’ or any day that fits in with your lifestyle and work.

I know that some people may not agree but I find it relaxing to get into ‘my zone’ in the kitchen, put my favourite music on and do some cooking for an hour or so.

Here is an example of what I might make on a Sunday to get ready for the week ahead, Paleo orders and life in general.
·         Poached Chicken and salad
·         Thai Chicken Rissoles
·         Chicken Sausages
·         Steamed Vegetables and mashed Pumpkin and Sweet Potato
·         Prepared Pumpkin Soup to go into the slow cooker the next day

This also served as Sunday dinner.  Once everything has been made, I portion individual meals into containers. Some go straight into the freezer and leave some in the fridge. This means that I can just grab and go as I need to and there is no need to go for ‘other options’.

I usually try to work with what I’ve got in the fridge and only buy what I really need. This mean there is less wastage and more space for all the meals you’ve just made.
