I am so excited to share these healthy gluten-free meal prep ideas with you guys! We've got you covered from breakfast to dinner…
We've done gluten-free meal prep before but now I'm going to take you to the next level with extra healthy gluten-free meal prep ideas.
My awesome friend Janae of Clean Monday Meals helped me create these healthy gluten-free meal prep ideas. She is so knowledgeable and actually does this for a business. Her meals are not only complete and delicious but they are also something that will satisfy your food cravings. The best part is that they are still healthy and great for meeting your carb, protein and fat macros. They are surprisingly easy to make as well. All you have to do is create your weekly menu then set aside a little bit of time to put the meals together and bam! You have healthy gluten-free meal prep for the entire week.
We decided to prep things from breakfast to dinner so that I would be covered all week long. Here's what we chose:
- Mini meatloafs with loaded mashed cauliflower
- Chicken lo mein with zucchini noodles
- Hearty breakfast bowls
- Gluten-free blueberry protein pancakes
Everything was surprisingly simple to make! My house smelled so good while we were baking away and after. I love that each dish was way more fun than traditional meal prep ideas of grilled fish or chicken and steamed veggies. Although more exciting, they were still packed with vitamin rich veggies!
Janae was so kind to share her delicious chicken lo mein with zucchini noodles recipe with all of us! It is so tasty and a great source of protein and lots of healthy vegetables!
