Mediterranean chicken meal prep bowls are a tasty way to stay on track and eat a nutritious, flavorful lunch. A few minutes of planning ahead and you will have a week’s worth of lunches ready for the work week.
Meal prep can be the difference between staying on track with healthy eating choices or going off the rails and finding yourself ordering a Mc whatever through a speaker in the drive-through.
Chicken meal prep, like this Moroccan Chicken Meal Prep Bowl, is likely the easiest to do because it’s what most of us eat. Dedicating a few extra minutes on weekends to set up your meals for the week is time well spent. Whether it be lunches, dinners or both – planning ahead is essential.

No bake lemon cheesecake parfaits make a delicious spring and summer dessert. These parfaits are made without gelatin or condensed milk. Just a handful of ingredients whipped together and layered into individual glasses for a sweet, tart, lemony treat.
No bake cheesecake bars are on of my favorite treats for a crowd, but having individual servings are great for those times when you want your own dessert.
