Meal Prep Tip: Take the thinking out of your menu so you don't end up ordering takeout. The moment when you have to stop and plan out a menu from scratch is often the moment where the wheels fall off of healthy meal intentions. Different kinds of frozen veggies, canned beans, and 1-2lb packages of frozen ground meat are great to have on hand. This way you can mix and match items to avoid menu boredom without having to think about it ahead of time.
