A couple months ago I asked on my Facebook page…..

15 Easy Meal & Snack Prep Ideas...Suggested by YOU!! | peak313.com

Of course you all came through with flying colors! I loved your ideas and wanted to get them down on a post so everyone can benefit!! I am going to write a post later about meal planning 101 and some things to consider, but for now, these simple ideas might be just what you need to get started—or to give you something new to try! Meal and snack weekly prep is probably the number 1 thing that keeps me on target in my health. Remember–your eating has SO MUCH MORE to do with your health and physique than any sort of exercising. If you are struggling in your health, then I suggest that you take a couple hours one day and instead of hitting the gym, hit the grocery store and kitchen!

(Check out this post for 9 “30 minutes or less” clean eating dinners that were suggested by you!)
