Meal prepping is an absolute savior especially when we have our hands full of stuff to do during the week, the best way to find meal prep recipes is by focusing on which meals are the most time consuming and will make your life easier.
The best part of meal prepping is you can prepare as small or as large quantities depending on how many people you need to feed or maybe how many days you plan to eat the same dish, it is all your choice. Try out our eight meal prep recipes you’ll never get tired of eating.
This is my family’s favorite meal, it is so easy to prepare and absolutely delicious. They are perfect for work lunches and I am sure your kids will love it too.

I love pasta but would always find it a little time consuming, until a friend of mine told me I could prepare it in advance and it would still taste as good. Ever since then I always meal prep a lot of my pasta dishes, I must admit the veg pasta in white sauce is my go-to dish. Just prepare your white sauce using flour, butter, milk, salt, and pepper.
Then in a large skillet saute garlic, mushrooms, capsicum, broccoli, add the boiled pasta I use penne, then add the white sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate or freeze when cold.
