Best Way to Survive December?

Well hello there fellow Gingis! We are officially five days into December, and the month is already showing signs of crazy. Whether you are juggling end of year work projects, holiday parties, toddler shenanigans, or hosting family - December is no joke people. Take care of yourselves!

BenGingi…yes, I hear you! But how? MEAL PREP. Meal Prep in our home has been an insane life changer. If you are worried it will kill your spontaneity…I promise it won’t. Actually in this case, having a plan for food (especially when you are feeding more than one), will give you back time and will reinvigorate your creative juices.

We found a really good system for our family and I wanted to share it with you all this week, because it is simple, SUPER do-able, and hopefully will take the burden off the busy month ahead!

For our weekly meal prep we choose: 1 Dough, 1 Sauce, & 1 Protein for the week.

For example, this week we made Flour Tortillas for breakfast burritos and yummy lunch wraps, Pumpkin Ragu from our Pumpkin Lasagna Recipe for a quick dinner solution over a bowl of fresh pasta or couscous, and our Sweet Potato & Maple Bacon Brussel Sprout Frittata for an excellent protein heavy breakfast.

(I started going to the gym at 5:30am, so it has been next level to just have the Frittata ready to be reheated the moment I get home and before I start my day!)

This allow us to always have a fabulous foundation on hand for whatever dish we want to make. It also stops us from buying and eating random unhealthy things from the supermarket. Intention is everything.
