Marching Orders #0002 Battleground

Most people overcomplicate meal prep, thinking it requires elaborate meals or hours in the kitchen. The reality? Meal prep is meant to save you time, keep you on track, and make clean eating effortless.

Here’s how to prep your meals without losing your entire weekend:

1. Simplify your menu. Stick to a few core meals that you enjoy and can prepare quickly. Less variety means faster prep and easier decision-making.

2. Batch-cook your meals. Cook everything in one session—roast a tray of chicken, steam a large batch of veggies, and cook enough rice for the week. Then portion them out so meals are ready to go.

3. Invest in good containers. Portion out your meals into high-quality containers so they’re easy to grab and go. A solid system eliminates excuses and keeps you consistent.

When you simplify your meal prep, you take control of your nutrition and your time. No more scrambling for healthy meals or falling back on junk food. Consistency is what drives results, and meal prep makes it easier to stay on track.

Marching Orders for the day: Choose one meal to prep for the week. Keep it simple, batch-cook the ingredients, and set yourself up for success.
