protein-rich strawberry 🍓 rhubarb muffins, easy Korean-inspired beef bowls, hidden sardine pasta salad !! it's gonna be a good week...
Here’s your meal prep guide for the week!
Every week I share a meal prep guide with my paid community members to help you cook up seasonal and nutrient-dense recipes in an efficient way so that you can actually follow a nutrient-dense diet.
I post these on thursdays so that you have time to review the recipes and shopping list, collect the ingredients, and set aside some time in the next few days for your meal prep session. Check out the editable grocery list, so you can check off the ingredients as you shop!
Here is a sneak peek at one of my fav seasonal recipes of the week - gluten-free protein-rich strawberry rhubarb muffins. They are soooo good.
Ready to cook up some delicious food? Here is this week’s menu:
Simple Korean Beef
Ground beef is the GOAT when it comes to affordable, protein rich meal prep. But it can get boring so we need to spice it up! This dish comes together in 15 mins and it makes the perfect quick lunch or dinner when you serve it with some bone broth rice or a sweet potato. Plus, another chance to hide liver in your weekly meal prep!!
Salmon & Sardine Pasta Salad
You guys are ALWAYS DMing me saying “Olivia, I know I should be eating sardines but I cannot stand them. Help!” So I did my duty and made you another recipe where you can’t taste the sardines. The only thing better than a delish pasta salad on a warm summer day is eating nutrient-packed sardines without even knowing it. The sardines are masked by the salmon (also very nutrient-dense and typically more palatable to people), 🍋 dressing, and fresh herbs!
Protein-Rich Strawberry Rhubarb Muffins
I am 90% strawberry rhubarb this time of the year. That’s how seasonal eating goes… you have to enjoy the peak season produce so you buy way too much and turn it into 500 different things. These are muffins that aren’t going to spike your blood sugar and leave you cravings sugary food 30 minutes later. Each one has about 10g of quality protein and they’re gluten free (or you can sub for regular flour if that’s your jam!). Two of these with a little side of scrambled eggs is the most delicious, satisfying, 5-minute breakfast!
Pesto Radish-Tomato Salad
I love buying vibrant radishes from the farmers market every week, but then I am left with tons of radish tops that are just wilting away in the fridge. This week we are getting an amazing lesson in zero-waste meal prep - use the radish for the base of a salad and the greens to make a pesto dressing!
