Bacon Weekly Prep

Weekly prep is a one day plan, shop, and food prep for the entire week. The goal is to have everything cleaned, chopped, and cooked to make meals easier the rest of the week.  You may plan one day, shop one day, and food prep the next day, or do it all in the same day. 

Weekly prep works best when choosing one or two proteins to prep and use in different ways throughout the week.  Use the labels in the side bar to help plan meals with similar ingredients.
