Meal prep can be an effective strategy for weight loss, as it allows individuals to prepare healthy meals in advance and save time during the week.
According to Sonya Angelone, R.D., a nutritionist in the San Francisco Bay Area, meal prep can involve preparing foods ahead of time and simply heating them up when needed. This approach can help individuals avoid unhealthy snacking. Or help avoid guessing what to eat when hunger strikes, and not taking the time to determine the nutrition. 

One protein-packed meal prep recipe involves chipotle-spiced chicken, red peppers, and mushrooms. Individuals can prep their chicken and vegetables separately and store them in different containers. When it’s time to eat, they can toss everything together, heat it up, and enjoy it in a tortilla shell or over rice.

Sweet potatoes provide a nutritious base for this plant-based dish, but they take some time to prepare. To make them ahead of time, individuals can peel, boil, and mash their sweet potatoes and store them in a separate container. Prepare the beans, kale, and other ingredients in another container. Heat them separately and serve them together when hunger strikes.

Meal prep “can also include preparing foods ahead of you just need to heat and eat,” says Sonya Angelone , R.D., a nutritionist in the San Francisco Bay Area. “This is one of the best dieting strategies since this will ensure that you have food in the kitchen when you are hungry,” she continues. “There is no guessing or snacking while trying to figure out what to eat.”
