Meal Prep in Mason Jars🥰

While reading the book “Atomic Habits”, one tip that has really stuck with me is Make It Easy!! When changing your habits, you have to make it easy on yourself. Not only do these mason jars make meal prep appealing to the eye, they also make it easy to take on the go!

1st jar: Apple Walnut Salad: spring mix, apples, walnuts, cucumber, yellow onions, green onions. I plan on adding salmon & dressing once I get to work

2nd jar: Simple Fruit Salad: blueberries, pineapples, kiwi, strawberries, honey, granola

I hope you are able to create habits and make it easy on yourself to do so! 👍 #lemon8diary #healthylifestyle2023 #dayinmylife #storytime

Meal prepping is a smart way to maintain a healthy diet while saving time during the week. Using mason jars for meal prep not only keeps your ingredients fresh but also offers a visually appealing way to organize your meals. Here are some tips for effective meal prepping: 1. **Variety is Key**: Ensure you prepare a mix of different ingredients to avoid monotony. Use grains like quinoa or brown rice, proteins such as grilled chicken or tofu, and a variety of colorful vegetables to create exciting combinations. 2. **Layer Your Ingredients**: When using mason jars, layer items to prevent sogginess. Place dressings at the bottom, followed by sturdier vegetables, and lighter ingredients like greens on top. This keeps everything fresh until you're ready to eat. 3. **Portion Control**: Keep an eye on serving sizes to avoid overeating. Using smaller mason jars can help you manage portion sizes better, leading to healthier eating habits. 4. **Easy to Grab**: Make your meals portable. Mason jars are perfect for on-the-go meals; just grab one from the fridge as you head out the door. This helps eliminate the temptation of fast food during busy days. 5. **Experiment and Adapt**: Don't hesitate to try new recipes and adjust them to your taste preferences. Incorporate seasonal fruits and vegetables for freshness and flavor. Remember, meal prepping in mason jars can help you stick to your nutritional goals and develop consistent eating habits – making it easier for you to maintain a healthy lifestyle long-term.
