Reading · One Balanced Meal Prep

Happy Thursday!

I hope you’re having a great week. Can you believe we’re already halfway through June? Summer always seems to fly by, and this week has been filled with getting settled into my new house. I’ve spent a lot of time unpacking, organizing, and creating new systems, and honestly, I’m loving it. Having a fresh space has been so motivating, especially in the kitchen. It’s been fun figuring out how to make everything more functional and dreaming up new recipes to share with you.

Before packing up my old kitchen, I made one last recipe that I couldn’t wait to include in this week’s meal prep plan: Avocado Lime Chicken Salad. This time of year, I love having a fresh grilled chicken salad ready to go, and the combination of the sweet corn, creamy avocado, and zesty dressing is so good. It’s delicious on toast, served with chips, or enjoyed on its own for an easy lunch. I have a feeling this one is going to be on repeat all summer long.

Also on this week’s meal prep plan are these Make-Ahead Spinach, Sun-Dried Tomato, and Feta Breakfast Sandwiches. I’m a big fan of breakfast sandwiches because they’re easy to prep ahead and there are endless ways to customize them. This flavor combination is one of my favorites, and each sandwich packs plenty of protein to help start your day off strong.

For lunches and dinners, you’ll find a One Pan Lemon Chicken and Rice Bake. I love recipes that make a generous batch and require minimal cleanup, and this one checks both boxes. The bright lemon flavor pairs perfectly with the chicken and rice, and it’s incredibly simple to throw together. I like serving it with a side of greens and portioning everything into containers for easy grab-and-go meals throughout the week.

And of course, we can’t forget something sweet. This Healthy Cookie Dough Bark is made with simple pantry ingredients and comes together quickly for an easy treat to keep in the freezer. You can even make it festive for the Fourth of July by adding a drizzle of white chocolate and some red and blue sprinkles on top.

I hope these recipes make your week a little easier and a lot more delicious. As always, I’d love to see what you’re making, so be sure to tag me if you try any of the recipes.

Have a wonderful rest of your week and a great weekend!
