Preparing Food Ahead of Time

Preparing food ahead of time helps you stick to your healthy eating plan even on busy days.

Besides buying easy-to-prepare foods, you can also save time by preparing some foods ahead of

time. Once a week, dedicate some time to preparing for the upcoming week.

• Make entire recipes and freeze them in single-serving portions to defrost when you need them. You can do this with almost any dish, including pastas, sauces, soups, and stews.
• Try bariatric-friendly chili and cooked vegetables, such as high-protein puréed or smashed cauliflower.
• Cook chicken breast, pork tenderloin, beef round or fish, cut it into small portions of 1 to 3oz. and freeze.
• Hard-boil a dozen or more eggs and keep them in the fridge.
• Wash, peel and cut fresh vegetables to snack on or use in recipes. They will stay good in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
• Weigh, measure or count out portions of foods to eat later. Examples include placing 1-oz. servings of breakfast cereal or low-fat cheese in baggies or containers, freezing small baggies or containers of ¾-cup servings of frozen blueberries and putting 1-tbsp. portions of peanut butter in small containers to take for lunches. You can also count your foods, such as 6-nut portions of almonds, in advance.
