Buffet Style Meal Prepping: Whole30 - Make your next whole30 easy with a buffet style meal prep set up! 5 days of breakfast, lunches, and dinners. All prepped in GoodCook portion-controlled containers to make life easier!
If you've been hanging around here a while, then you have seen our series with buffet-style meal prepping. In case you missed them, or you are new to our page (WELCOME!), we started the series with a gluten-free plan and then shared a vegetarian one.
If you aren't familiar with buffet-style meal prepping at all, we recommend reading our Buffet Style Meal Prepping 101 post first. This will give you call the tips, tricks, and tools (including the best containers) you need to be successful at any kind of meal prepping. Once you have completed that, we recommend calculating your macros to get your base caloric starting point.
If you are pretty familiar with meal prepping and don’t care about macros (hello intuitive eating friends!), then dive right into this blog post.
This Whole30 meal prep isn't just designed for those doing the whole30. It is a meal plan that is comprised of whole foods that are affordable, easy to combine, and will ensure you are working within your macros. Kinda hard to overeat sweet potatoes, don't you think? If you worry that your portions will get out of control, fear not! This entire meal prep is done in our favorite portion-controlled containers by GoodCook. Each container compartment tells you the exact amount, so you don't have to worry about measuring! The containers are also microwave, freezer, and dishwasher safe!
Feel free to swap in (or out) any ingredients. If you're following the Whole30 diet, make sure the items are compliant with the program and are allowed as stated by the "rules" of this eating style. If you aren't doing the whole30, but want to add more "whole foods" to your diet, feel free to mix in some things like oats, quinoa, or lentils.
Make sure to grab your containers before you head to the store so that you are ready to go on meal prep day! You can grab all of the containers here!
