This week I picked out some dinners for you that are light and flavorful, and easy for meal prep. They are filled with fresh ingredients and most of the recipes take less than one hour to prepare.
Meal Prep Tips
- Lasagna rolls are time-consuming to make, cook them on the weekend when you have time. Be sure to make extra to use during the week for another dinner.
- Cook up a big portion of quinoa when you are making the stuffed peppers to use during the week in salads and side dishes.
- Serve leftover chicken (parmesan or lemon) in or with the Greek pasta salad for a full dinner. Or use it up in a green salad.
Side Dish Idea - No Recipe Required
Grilled Zucchini Slice zucchini lengthwise into strips about ⅛ inch thick. Brush both sides with olive oil and place them on a heated grill or grill pan. Cook for a few minutes on each side, sprinkle with a little bit of parmesan cheese and serve.
