20 Healthy Vegetarian Meal Prep Recipes that will help make your life so much easier!
Happy February! It’s been feeling a little bit more like May here lately, but most places in the country are still experiencing winter. Someday I hope to move to one of those places, haha 🙂
For the month of January I really tried to focus on healthy meal prep recipes and today I’m putting all of those recipes (plus more) in one handy place so you don’t have to go searching for them!
I was always a little weary of meal prep before I had my son and now, 18 months in, meal prep has become my best friend. We eat oatmeal cups or breakfast cookies for breakfast and snacks throughout the day and I love my loaded veggie bowls for lunches. I hope you find these recipes as handy as I do!

July 30, 2018 at 1:15 amDo not roast the brussel sprouts or carrots for 40-45 minutes! You will completely burn them and ruin your meal prep. I wasted a bunch of good brussel sprouts because of this. Please change your instructions!
Afer trying again, it’s clear that at 425F brussel sprouts and carrots only need to be cooked for about 20 minutes (or for 35 minutes at 400F )

July 30, 2018 at 3:43 pmHi Ethan, sorry you had an issue with the roast time. For me, roasting everything together caused it to need a longer roast time for everything to get caramelized and cooked through. I will make note in the recipe that some people may need a shorter cooking time.

Thank you for these awesome ideas. I will update how they turned out for me. 🙂
