This week. No grocery shop. Use it up marathon coming in hot !
.
.
.
What was left in the fridge got washed and prepped and so many snacks and veggies are ready for the next few days.
.
.
.
I’ll forever sound like a broken record saying you DON’T have to cook all day to prep for the week. You don’t have to have ever single meal planned. Prep anything you think will cut down hands on time this week.
.
.
.
Have a look in your fridge. What didn’t get used up last week? Can you cook or prep it to make it into an easy meal this week? Just taking inventory and thinking about that’s you could do with what you already have in hand I’d a great first step to spend less at the store this week!

Yes, you can prep a whole bunch of freezer meals that require zero cooking, then freeze them. Like magic, 5pm hits, you dump the thawed bag (or even still even partially frozen) and go do something else while dinner cooks- and it won’t be dishes because you only have I’ve pot to clean up after!.

Swipe to see the kinds of recipes included! You can find these recipes in our Healthy Instant Pot Freezer Meal Prep Session ebook and our huge 80 page The Complete Instant Pot Book Bundle

🍝 I know you’ve made too much spaghetti for dinner before. We all do it!
.
.
.
Turn that leftover spaghetti into a pasta salad for next day lunch. You can add raw veggies and use an Italian dressing for an ultra simple pasta salad, but I like to take it next level with CAPRESE NOODLE SALADS!

Zero cook prep.
.

.
It’s becoming my go to prep style these days. Mostly because I’m creating tons of recipes for our meal planning system @meal_plan_collective_app during the week - and I am LOVING IT!

I know you’ve got prep and planning questions for me, let’s hear them here in the comments !

How do you freeze individual meals ?!
.
.
.
Yes, it takes up more freezer space to freeze in individual portions but this is great because you can just grab one lunch or dinner at a time if you are solo, or in a family with different preferences AND you don’t have to eat the same meal Over and over !
.
.
.
Which method do you use most to freeze your meals?

Stretching ingredients beyond their fridge (or counter) life is my jam!
.
.
.
Stop tossing your shrivelling, over ripe tomatoes! Instead, make diced tomatoes and freeze them for a future recipe!!!

“I want to meal prep, but I don’t want to eat the same thing for days on end”
.
.
.
Me neither!!! slowly, over time - build a freezer stockpile. Double recipes when you are already cooking is a great starter step.
.
.
.
This way you can grab what you are in the mood for and add variety!
.
.
.
My meals are frozen in @soupercubes trays and then transferred to freezer safe bags.
.
.
.
A few points.
.
.
.
I create recipes for a living - full time - I cook a lot for the blog and @meal_plan_collective_app …. Plus client work I do‼️Do not think you need this level of prep in your life to adopt it as a habit. ‼️
.
.
.
Ugh the plastic. I know. I reduce single use plastic every where I can in life but man alive it’s hard to find a non single use product for this use. Also I gift a lot of this to family so it is easiest.
.
.
.
Have you tried freezing individual meals as part of your meal prepping?!

Another leftover makeover idea coming in hot 🔥
.
.
.
When you are tired of those holiday leftovers it’s time to use them as pre prepped ingredients for future freezer meals 👌
.
.
.
This reduces food waste AND fills your freezer with a couple of extra meals!
.
.
.
What’s the best way you repurpose leftovers into future freezer meals ?!

Anyone else dealing with leftovers post holiday celebrations?! I will get to repurposing my leftovers but until then, I want to keep my leftovers as fresh as possible using my Zwilling 7 Piece Fresh & Save Starter Set to vacuum seal the leftovers in their containers or bags to reduce the oxygen and oxidation to extend the life of my holiday eats!

In my stories (and the I ❤️ZWILLING highlight) I have a code for you to save 10% (Sorry – Canadian only)!

Tell me the best recipe you make to repurpose your leftovers!

Just over here finding even more ways to use my @soupercubes trays. This time, I’m showing you how to freeze pasta based soups!
.
.
.
Normally, freezing pasta in soups is a no go. The pasta absorbs the broth causing the pasta to bloat and basically fall apart, and leaving you with no broth and a mess of what was once pasta. 👎
.
.
.
But, using this method (swipe to see) you can freeze all of your pasta based soups now too!
.
.
.
What is your ultimate favourite pasta based soup!?

Leftover potatoes are always hanging around during the holidays (at least at my house they are 🤷‍♀️).
.
.
.
Leftover baked potatoes are actually SO versatile that I even bake some on Sundays and use them up during the week for quick assembly meals - like these ultra basic BREKY BOWLS that you can customize any way you like?
.
.
.
What one ingredient MUST be in your breaky bowls !?

Im not hosting any Holiday gatherings this year so no typical Christmas foods here ….. just a crazy week of cooking and photographing meals for @meal_plan_collective_app (which launches Jan 1!!!)
