Chop vegetables commonly used in meal preparation and store in the refrigerator for less than one week. For example: onions, sweet peppers, jalapenos, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc..
Quick breakfast or snack time ideas to prep a week at a time: overnight oats. On Sunday afternoon or evening (after you’ve chopped your veggies for the week ahead), grab five pint jars and lids and prepare them for filling. Scoop ½ cup of your favorite yogurt into each jar. Next, add a handful of your favorite fruit (blueberries, dried cherries, raspberries, banana, melon, etc.) to each jar. After that, add ¼-½ cup of oatmeal or granola. Then, add ¼ cup of your favorite yogurt on top of the fruit in each jar. Then, sprinkle a ½ a teaspoon of chia seeds. To top it all off, add another scoop of yogurt, granola or oatmeal (whatever’s your favorite), seal with a lid and refrigerate.
