Happy Sunday everyone! 🍳 Let's share our meal prep wins this week. I find that prepping on Sunday is literally the only way I stay on track with protein goals during the work week, especially with the reduced appetite making it hard to think about food.

Here's what I prepped today for the week ahead:

Protein-Packed Turkey Meatballs (makes ~24)

• 500g lean turkey mince
• 1 egg
• 40g oats (blitzed into flour)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt, pepper, Italian seasoning
• Bake 200°C for 20 min
• Per 4 meatballs: ~180 cal, 28g protein

Greek Yogurt Protein Bark (snack)

• 500g Fage 0% Greek yogurt
• 1 scoop vanilla whey
• Mixed berries on top
• Spread on parchment, freeze 2 hrs, break into pieces
• Per serving (~1/6): ~95 cal, 16g protein

Chicken & Veg Rice Bowls x5

• 750g chicken breast, seasoned with paprika & garlic
• 400g jasmine rice (dry weight, cooked)
• Roasted broccoli & peppers
• Drizzle of soy sauce & sesame
• Per bowl: ~420 cal, 42g protein

Love this thread. I'm all about minimum effort, maximum protein. Everything goes in the slow cooker because I'm lazy.

Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken — this is stupid easy

• 1kg chicken breast
• 1 jar salsa
• 1 tin black beans, drained
• Packet of taco seasoning
• Low 6-8 hours. Shred with forks.
• Use in wraps, bowls, or just eat it straight because we're adults
• Per 200g serving: ~210 cal, 35g protein

I make this literally every single Sunday and I'm not tired of it yet. 4 months running.

Plant-based GLP-1 user here! Getting protein without meat is harder but not impossible:

High-Protein Lentil Soup (makes 6 servings)

• 400g red lentils
• 1 tin coconut milk (light)
• 1L vegetable stock
• 2 tins diced tomatoes
• Onion, garlic, cumin, turmeric, ginger
• Handful of spinach stirred in at the end
• Per serving: ~280 cal, 18g protein

Cottage Cheese Egg Muffins x12

• 8 eggs
• 250g cottage cheese
• Chopped spinach, mushrooms, peppers
• Salt, pepper, nutritional yeast
• Pour into muffin tin, bake 180°C for 25 min
• Per 2 muffins: ~145 cal, 16g protein

The egg muffins are honestly my secret weapon. Grab 2 from the fridge, microwave 30 seconds, done. Perfect for those days when you have zero appetite but know you need to eat something.

y'all are way more creative than me lmao. my meal prep is:

- 2kg chicken breast seasoned with whatever
- big pot of rice
- bag of frozen broccoli

divide into containers. eat. repeat until dead.

it aint pretty but its 40g+ protein per meal and takes like 45 min total. been doing it for 3 years, long before GLP-1s. if it aint broke dont fix it 💪

the "eat. repeat. until dead" meal prep philosophy 😂 I mean hey, it works!

Those egg muffins are genius. I'm not veggie but I'm adding those to my rotation. The grab-and-go factor is huge on low appetite days.

Salsa chicken is a classic for a reason. Have you tried adding a block of cream cheese in the last hour? I know it adds calories but the texture becomes incredible.
